suricata fails to cross build from source for a number of reasons. For
two of them I understood the cause and am attaching a patch. Please
consider applying them even though suricata will continue to fail cross
building.
For one thing debian/rules uses dpkg --print-architecture as the host
architecture. That's wrong. DEB_HOST_ARCH is the variable you are
looking for. The present code tries to enable luajit when cross building
for ppc64el without installing luajit.
The other issue described in lintian warning
autotools-pkg-config-macro-not-cross-compilation-safe. Applying this
patch makes the lintian warning go away.
Please close this bug when addressing these issues even though suricata
will continue to fail cross building.
