Source: geomview Version: 1.9.5-3 Tags: patch upstream User: debian-cr...@lists.debian.org Usertags: ftcbfs
geomview fails to cross build from source, because configure gives up on testing popen for the flag "rb". The check cannot be made to work for cross compilation. However, popen is so widely supported now that it we are much better off assuming that it works during cross compilation and testing it otherwise. Please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
