Source: grpn
Version: 1.4.1-1
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: rebootstrap
grpn fails to cross build from source, because it does not pass cross
tools to make. The easiest way of fixing that - using dh_auto_build -
mostly fixes that except that it still uses the build architecture
pkg-config and therefore fails finding gtk+-2.0.pc. Makeing pkg-config
substitutable fixes that part and makes grpn cross buildable. Please
consider applying the attached patch.
