Source: netsniff-ng Version: 0.6.5-1 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: rebootstrap
netsniff-ng fails to cross build from source, because nothing tells its ./configure which architecture we are building for and thus it just builds for the build architecture. We cannot use dh_auto_configure, because netsniff-ng's ./configure is very much unlike autotools. Rather one is supposed to stuff the host architecture into a variable called CROSS_COMPILE. The attached patch implements that and makes netsniff-ng cross buildable. Please consider applying it. Helmut
