http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=buildd.emdebian.org;[EMAIL PROTECTED] #480515, #480518, #480514 Just a starter list right now but there are lots more to file - I'd rather file them automatically during package cross-builds where possible but that would be best done once the pseudo-package is available. I'll file some more in the coming days as part of an audit of the packages built so far. > 2. Who to set the maintainer to (already given) > > > 9.

Explanatory blurb for inclusion in > http://www.debian.org/Bugs/pseudo-packages That page seems to want a one-liner, so: "Problems related to building packages for Emdebian" For a longer description: "buildd.emdebian.org tracks any issue related to Emdebian packages, including (but not limited to) failure to crossbuild, failure to remove unwanted files, packages blocking update of other packages, unwanted dependencies, breakage caused by differences between Emdebian and Debian versions, tracking outstanding issues caused by existing Debian packages, tracking problems across each sub-project in Emdebian (including uClibc and native builds) and lintian failures (all lintian errors are fatal in Emdebian)." > > As outlined in the post to debian-devel above, I'd also like the > > current usertag 'crossbuilt' to become a BTS tag - would you prefer > > a separate bug report for that or can the two requests be handled in > > this report? > > > > One of the bugs currently tagged as "crossbuilt" would be reassigned to > > the new pseudo-package : > > This should almost certainly be crossbuildling or crosscompiling, not > crosbuilt; but in any event, please file a separate bug which follows > the instructions in > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=337733#10 crossbuilding, preferably.
