Package: protobuf-compiler-grpc Version: 1.16.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I'm having a problem with grpc_cpp_plugin in my cross-build environment. ``` $ apt-get build-dep -aarmhf . -y Note, using directory '.' to get the build dependencies Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libc-ares2 libgoogle-perftools4 libtcmalloc-minimal4 libunwind8 Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them. The following packages will be REMOVED: protobuf-compiler-grpc The following NEW packages will be installed: [...] protobuf-compiler-grpc:armhf [...] ``` If I'm not mistaken the protobuf-compiler-grpc package should be marked `Multi-Arch: foreign` just like for example protobuf-compiler package is. This would allow me to keep my hosts native protobuf-compiler-grpc package installed while installing the packages build-dependencies if I'm not mistaken. (Reported against the buster/stable version which is affected, but also verified that the situtation still seems to be the same with the testing/unstable version of the package.) Regards, Andreas Henriksson PS. Please don't take my word for anything about multi-arch stuff. If you're not qualified to know the correct solution I can probably help get someone else in the loop who can give us guidance.
