--- Begin Message ---Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-128.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hello, I have an i386 system which I would like to update a subset of to amd64 (a partial cross-grade). Two of the packages which I need to install are mythtv-{database,backend}:amd64 (from dmo) which each have a dependency on cron which cannot be satisfied by non-multiarch cron:i386 (native for the system). Marking the package as Multi-Arch: foreign would allow the i386 version to satisfy those dependencies. >From https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec, Multi-Arch: foreign means: The package is not co-installable and should be allowed to satisfy the dependencies of a package of another architecture than its own. Since cron behaves the same whether it is i386 or amd64 I think foreign is appropriate. The patch is so trivial I almost hesitate to attach it, but here it is. I've tested that with this cron:i386 installed the mythtv-{database,backend}:amd64 dependencies are satisfied. Thanks, Ian. -- Package-specific info: --- EDITOR: not set --- /usr/bin/editor: /bin/nano --- /usr/bin/crontab: -rwxr-sr-x 1 root crontab 40264 May 3 2015 /usr/bin/crontab --- /var/spool/cron: drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 8 10:38 /var/spool/cron --- /var/spool/cron/crontabs: drwx-wx--T 2 root crontab 4096 Sep 27 09:38 /var/spool/cron/crontabs --- /etc/cron.d: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 23 18:14 /etc/cron.d --- /etc/cron.daily: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 23 18:20 /etc/cron.daily --- /etc/cron.hourly: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 25 2017 /etc/cron.hourly --- /etc/cron.monthly: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 23 18:13 /etc/cron.monthly --- /etc/cron.weekly: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 10 13:48 /etc/cron.weekly -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, armhf, armel, arm64 Kernel: Linux 4.12.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cron depends on: ii adduser 3.116 ii debianutils 4.8.2 ii dpkg 1.18.24 ii init-system-helpers 1.49 ii libc6 2.24-17 ii libpam-runtime 1.1.8-3.6 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.6 ii libselinux1 2.7-2 ii lsb-base 9.20170808 Versions of packages cron recommends: ii ssmtp [mail-transport-agent] 2.64-8+b2 Versions of packages cron suggests: ii anacron 2.3-24 ii checksecurity 2.0.16+nmu1 ii logrotate 3.11.0-0.1 Versions of packages cron is related to: pn libnss-ldap <none> pn libnss-ldapd <none> pn libpam-ldap <none> pn libpam-mount <none> pn nis <none> pn nscd <none> -- no debconf informationdiff --git a/debian/control b/debian/control index c55ab62..6ab8444 100644 --- a/debian/control +++ b/debian/control @@ -25,6 +25,7 @@ Depends: adduser, lsb-base (>= 3.0-10), libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-11) +Multi-Arch: foreign Recommends: exim4 | postfix | mail-transport-agent Suggests:
