Hi Niels, this is the friendly reminder and summary following our irc discussion. It turned out that debhelper's meson build system does not yet work for cross compilation as can be seen when cross compiling systemd in unstable at the moment. dh_auto_build calls ninja, which calls "meson --internal regenerate", which fails with "File not found: /tmp/meson-cross-file.0Cl4.conf." It seems to expect the presence of the cross file during dh_auto_build (and likely also dh_auto_install). In my poc patch for systemd[1], I simply dumped the crossfile to the debian directory and never deleted it. That worked. Thank you for handling the issue.
