Hi Samuel,
until very recently, hurd failed to cross build a stage1 and you fixed
that. Thank you. This failure hid a regression in mig. The refactoring
of debian/control caused mig-for-host to disappear from a targeted
build. However, glibc stage1 depends on mig-for-host. debian/rules
actually tries to generate a mig-for-host, but debhelper ends up
skipping it as it is not part of debian/control.
I propose that we move mig-for-host from control.native.in to the
generally used control.in. Once doing so, targeted builds end up
generating it and I can complete a toolchain bootstrap for hurd-i386
again.
Helmut
