Control: affects -1 + src:transmission
Hi Jonas,
transmission fails to cross build from source, because it fails running
rsass with an Exec format error. In many cases, this is solved by
marking the relevant package (rsass in this case) Multi-Arch: foreign. I
see that you marked it Multi-Arch: allowed, but found no reason for it
to be allowed. As far as I can see, it only transforms textual content
to other forms of textual content and there is no architecture-dependent
behavior at all. Can you explain why you marked it Multi-Arch: allowed?
Then I also looked at the library and it is marked Multi-Arch: foreign.
Libraries (except source-only libraries lacking dependencies) must never
be marked Multi-Arch: foreign. As it happens the rsass library has
architecture-dependent dependencies and thus it must not be marked
Multi-Arch: foreign. I propose changing it to Multi-Arch: same as that's
what we typically want libraries to be.
I am expecting that both annotations are in error and am attaching a
patch for what I think is right. Please give reasons for your unusual
usage of Multi-Arch or apply my patch.
Helmut
