Package: ccache Version: 4.12-1 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: ftcbfs X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Control: affects -1 + src:qt6-graphs
Hi, it seems that some Qt packages started adding Build-Depends on ccache in ways that you cannot just remove it. This generally causes cross build failures as it is the host ccache that is being installed and cannot be run. It's not entirely clear why we would need ccache during package builds (as a non-optional component), but that's another question. I argue that one of ccache's main goals is not to behave differently than the real compiler. Which compiler that is is none of ccache's concerns, but if the passed compiler is a cross compiler, then ccache dutifully cross compiles stuff as expected. Therefore, I propose marking it Multi-Arch: foreign. Does any of [email protected] readers have objections to this reasoning? I'm attaching a patch for your convenience. Helmut
