Package: mingw-w64-tools
Version: 8.0.0-1
User: debian-cr...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs
Control: affects -1 + fwupd-efi

fwupd-efi fails to cross build from source, because it gets an "Exec
format error" when running genpeimg. That suggests that mingw-w64-tools
maybe should be marked Multi-arch: foreign. Can you help me figure out
whether that is actually the right thing to do?

/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-pkg-config
/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-widl
/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-pkg-config
/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-widl

These are all triplet-prefixed. That qualifies them for Multi-Arch:
foreign.

/usr/bin/gendef
/usr/bin/genidl
/usr/bin/genpeimg
/usr/bin/mingw-genlib

These are not. I'm not into mingw. Can you tell me whether their
behaviour differs depending on which (Debian) architecture you run them
on? I suppose that since these all deal with windows files, they should
be fully independent of the (Debian) architecture these tools were built
for. Do you confirm?

If yes, please add "Multi-Arch: foreign" to this binary package.

Helmut
