reassign 576967 cdbs tags 576967 +patch thanks How can you suggest that a multiword CC is “abuse” and okay to break, when by your own logic (bug 523642), CDBS “has a well defined current behaviour that users rely on”?
This change also broke one of my packages that does some cross compiling by setting CC = gcc -m32. This is a perfectly legitimate use of CC; for example, the libc6 packaging does this to cross-compile libc6-i386 on amd64. But in fact, the CDBS change that introduced this regression (commit ee9bbf5 in version 0.4.77) doesn’t even correctly do what it was _intended_ to do. The $(origin) function is supposed to be called with a variable name, not with the contents of a variable. http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Origin-Function.html#Origin-Function So, can you please apply this patch, which fixes both of these bugs and should make everyone happy?
