Package: netpbm Version: 2:10.0-15 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: crossbu...@debian.org Usertags: cross
Hi, Enough source packages (41 in unstable) Build-Depend on netpbm that it would be very helpful to have it marked as "Multi-Arch: foreign", on the basis that even though it's "Architecture: any" it doesn't matter which architecture you get on a multiarch system as long as you can execute the binary. This would make it easier to cross-build those packages. The patch is trivial, but it follows in case it helps. Note that this is independent of adding multiarch support to libnetpbm*. * Make netpbm Multi-Arch: foreign, so that it can satisfy cross-build-dependencies. diff -u netpbm-free-10.0/debian/control netpbm-free-10.0/debian/control --- netpbm-free-10.0/debian/control +++ netpbm-free-10.0/debian/control @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ Package: netpbm Architecture: any +Multi-Arch: foreign Depends: libnetpbm10 (= ${binary:Version}), ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Recommends: ghostscript Conflicts: netpbm-nonfree (<= 1:19940301.1-3), pnmtopng, pbmwbmp, netpbm-dev (<= 2:9.10), ucbmpeg (<= 1r2-6) Thanks, -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
