This seems entirely off-topic for libcdb-file-perl. Maybe open some bug against pkg-js-tools? If you refer to https://sources.debian.org/src/pkg-js-tools/0.9.25/lib/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/nodejs.pm/?hl=679#L679 then yes, that's wrong and should be using DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH. In practical terms, the values only differ on any-i386. $ dpkg-architecture -ai386 ... DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE=i686-linux-gnu DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH=i386-linux-gnu ... $ When referring to /usr/lib/<triplet>, it's always DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH. You should use DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE for ./configure --host=<triplet> and for <triplet>-<tool>. Hope this helps Helmut
