Package: dpkg-cross Version: 2.5.8 Severity: normal Certain packages have libraries that exist in a subdirectory under /usr/lib. dpkg-cross fails to detect these as valid libs to include. A specific example is libaxis2c0_1.6.0-1_amd64.deb. I'm trying to repackage this for use on an i686 machine. This package supplies a set of shared objects under /usr/lib/axis2/lib. However, running dpkg-cross against this package results in "package libaxis2c0 doesn't provide any useful files. Skipping."
Perhaps dpkg-cross should either be able to find libraries in subdirectories of /usr/lib, or the user could supply additional paths to look for libs? -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/dpkg-cross/cross-compile -- # # /etc/dpkg-cross/cross-compile: configuration for dpkg-cross # # default architecture for dpkg-cross (to avoid always typing the -a option # if you do cross installations only for one architecture) # Note: default_arch is managed by debconf - it can be overridden # if ~/.dpkg-cross/cross-compile exists or by specifying an # architecture on the command line. # Use '[sudo] dpkg-reconfigure dpkg-cross' to change this value. #default_arch = # All subsequent variables may be removed (and/or become # unsupported) at any time. # # general section: paths of cross compiling environment # # you can set the following variables here: # crossprefix: prefix for cross compiling binaries; default: $(DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM)- # crossbase : base prefix for the following; default: /usr # crossdir : base directory for architecture; default: # $(CROSSBASE)/$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) # crossbin : dir for binaries; default: $(CROSSDIR)/bin # crosslib : dir for libraries; default: $(CROSSDIR)/lib # crossinc : dir for headers; default: $(CROSSDIR)/include # maintainer : maintainer name to pass to original dpkg-buildpackage # in -m option.
