Package: dpkg-cross Version: 1.28 Severity: normal
An easy way to reproduce the behavior: Get libxt-dev_1.0.2-1_arm.deb from, say, ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libx/libxt Now, issuing dpkg-cross -v -a arm -b libxt-dev_1.0.2-1_arm.deb gives: Going to convert libxt-dev_1.0.2-1_arm.deb Extracting libxt-dev_1.0.2-1_arm.deb Extracting information from control file Creating destination package tree Creating /usr/share/doc/libxt-dev-arm-cross/README Creating control file Creating md5sums file dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `/tmp/dpkg-cross.9a173216/dst/DEBIAN/control' near line 8 package `libxt-dev-arm-cross': `Depends' field, syntax error after reference to package `x11-common-arm-cross' dpkg-cross: building package with dpkg-deb -b failed. dpkg-cross: conversion of libxt-dev_1.0.2-1_arm.deb failed. The same behavior occurred using any of the packages that also have a version under debian/pool/main/x/xfree86, if you don't get that version (for example libxt-dev_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_arm.deb works), but instead the one that uses xorg. (Most of these aren't under the xorg directory). This was tested on two machines. For example, using libxt-dev_1.0.0-5_arm.deb also doesn't work. The whole xfree86 set seems to work. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.4 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages dpkg-cross depends on: ii binutils 2.17-1 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii dpkg-dev 1.13.22 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.17-2 Determines file type using "magic" dpkg-cross recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
