Package: gettext Version: 0.18.1.1-9 Severity: normal Hi,
the gettext binary package being Multi-Arch: None prevents the following essential source packages from being cross compiled: - acl - attr - bash - binutils - coreutils - dpkg - e2fsprogs - gawk - gcc-4.7 - grep - shadow - tar - texinfo - util-linux There of course exist many more but those are the packages that must be cross compiled to be able to bootstrap Debian for a new architecture (but fail to build because of gettext being Multi-Arch: None). Ubuntu made the gettext package Multi-Arch: allowed with version 0.18.1.1-9ubuntu1 and that seems to work fine wrt cross building. Please consider marking Debian gettext Multi-Arch: allowed as well. cheers, josch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
