Package: libqoi-dev
Version: 0+git20251213+ds-1
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: cross-satisfiability
Control: affects -1 + src:gimp
gimp cannot be cross built from source, because its dependency on
libqoi-dev is not satisfiable. In general, Arch:all packages can never
satisfy cross Build-Depends unless they're marked Multi-Arch:foreign or
are annotated :native. While libqoi-dev only contains a header, marking
it M-A:foreign would be wrong. It exposes libstb-dev and the foreign
marking would discard the architecture constraint for the transitive
dependency. That also means that annotating it :native is not going to
help here.
What we need here is for an architecture constraint on libqoi-dev to be
forwarded to libstb-dev and Arch:all cannot do that. This is known as
the "multiarch interpreter problem" (as it was first observed with
interpreters) and the "multiarch interpreter workaround" is to convert
the package to Arch:any. That's what I'm proposing here. I know this is
causing more packages, but we're doing so for a reason.
Please find my patch attached.
Helmut
