Source: babeltrace Version: 1.5.11-4 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: cross-satisfiability ftcbfs Control: affects 1121810 + src:babeltrace
babeltrace cannot be cross built from source for several reasons. Upfront it Build-Depends on python3-all-dev. For supporting cross compilation, this should be libpython3-all-dev and python3-all-dev:native. Once fixing this, babeltrace runs into #1121810. Then, its check for the elfutils version uses AC_RUN_IFELSE. That macro is known to break cross compilation. In this case, what is being determined is a compile time constant and that can be obtained using AC_COMPUTE_INT instead. I'm attaching a patch for the first and last problem. Please consider applying it. Also consider forwarding the change to AC_RUN_IFELSE upstream as it benefits other distributions. Helmut
