Given that you dropped the binutils-dev dependency right away, I attempted integrating it the way you suggest and conclude that this approach just works. https://salsa.debian.org/helmutg/rebootstrap/-/commit/d55d0c7ba34073f349bd769f8a416ebda7c36b3e > libsysprof-capture-4-dev is now built on all Linux architectures and I > believe its build dependencies are minimal when built with both those > 2 build profiles. I agree with the general direction. My disagreement was about the process. Changing the bootstrap package set tends to be difficult and I expected needing more time. It actually turns out to just work. Helmut
