Sorry I'm being dim here. I think that should set DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH (to the result of 'dpgk-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH'), unless DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is already set to something in which case it should keep that value. Am I wrong? I don't see why it should end up null if invoked directly as a make rule. > Nevertheless, jed > builds fine even then which suggests that passing --with-slanglib and > --with-slanginc is not really necessary although the comments say > otherwise. This may be because I changed to debhelper 9 mode, which IIRC sets this variable automatically anyway, so this bit in the rules file is probably pointless. It's always hard to know when to remove stuff that is/maybe no longer needed, without spending a lot of time testing. Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Debian, Wookware, ARM http://wookware.org/
