Version: 0.08-5
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ftcbfs
libsort-key-top-perl fails to cross build from source, because it uses
the build architecture compiler as linker. It originates from
debian/rules passing LD. The value is looked up from Perl's sysconfig
data without considering the host architecture. I propose using dpkg's
buildtools.mk as source instead. Once doing so, it cross builds
successfully. I'm attaching a patch for your convenience.
