Building qemu bootloaders for multiple architectures

Hi folks I currently maintain ipxe. It is usualy used by x86 qemu to do all the network stuff. It also provides a large binary that can be loaded by grub. As it is pulled in by qemu-system-x86 it needs to be installable on any Debian architecture. Currently it only ships an arch-all package th

Computing Build-Depends at build time (and other updates to debian/control)?

2016-08-21 Thread Josh Triplett
[CCed to other potentially interested parties. Please CC me on replies.] Mechanisms like shlibdeps, dh_perl, and other substvars allow packages to compute their Depends at build time. This avoids hard-coding dependencies, simplifies upgrading the package to new versions, and makes transitions muc
