Cool. My build environment must be buggy then. In any case, this change makes cross building mariadb a lot easier. > The topic of cross-building tangents the multi-arch definitions in the > control file which currently are not correct and I am not sure on how > to correctly solve it without regressions: > > W dependency-is-not-multi-archified libmariadb-dev-compat depends on > libmariadb-dev (multi-arch: no) > W dependency-is-not-multi-archified libmariadbd-dev depends on > libmariadb-dev (multi-arch: no) > W dependency-is-not-multi-archified mariadb-plugin-gssapi-client > depends on mariadb-client-10.5 (multi-arch: no) I fear that there is little you can do here. The hinter likely told you that you can mark libmariadb-dev-compat Multi-Arch: same. Lintian told you that Multi-Arch: same is useless since libmariadb-dev is not thus marked. Both are correct. The idea of the hinter is that by parallelizing the addition of M-A:same, we get everything marked quicker while having some useless (but correct) markings in the interim. The lintian stance is that useless markings issue a warning. Helmut
