User: debian-cr...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: cross-satisfiability ftcbfs
libarchive fails to cross build from source for three reasons:
* Its gcc dependency is not cross-satisfiable. We need to perform
toolchain dependency translation here, but this is not yet supported
on the toolchain side. Bummer. Fortunately, the versioned dependency
is implicitly satisfied even in oldstable. It can simply be dropped.
* The locales | locales-all dependency is not cross-satisfiable. The
locales-all alternative would help cross compilation, but sbuild
drops alternatives and locales is not Multi-Arch: foreign.
Fortunately, this is only needed for running tests, so we can opt out
using <!nocheck>.
* debian/rules wrongly matches for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck. Fix the
pattern.
After applying the attached patch, libarchive cross builds successfully.
Please consider using it.
