Package: miscfiles Version: 1.5+dfsg-2 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: rebootstrap Control: affects -1 + src:libsrtp2 src:srtp
The affected packages cannot satisfy their cross Build-Depends, because their dependency on miscfiles is unsatisfiable. In general, Architecture: all packages can never satisfy cross Build-Depends unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. For miscfiles it is non-trivial to check whether this is correct. For one thing it has non-trivial maintainer scripts. I investigated them and concluded that they are concerned with changing the default word list, which is an architecture-independent operation. Then miscfiles has a number of dependencies to consider. debconf and dictionaries-common are already marked Multi-Arch: foreign. perl is not and it should likely be annotated :any here, but the dependency is inserted in other tooling so we cannot easily fix that here and it doesn't actually hurt, because installing perl for non-native architectures presently doesn't work at all (due to perl-base being essential). Thus the marking should be relatively safe. Please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
