Source: gsl Version: 2.8+dfsg-4 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: cross-satisfiability
gsl cannot be cross built from source, because its dependencies on gcc and binutils cannot satisfied. They need "toolchain dependency cross translation" which has been unavailable until earlier this year. However, it turns out that these dependencies are always satisfied for native builds since at least buster, so we may just drop them instead. I'm attaching a patch for your convenience. Helmut
