Usertags: cross-satisfiability
Control: affects -1 + src:dbus-python

About 400 packages cannot satisfy their cross Build-Depends, because
they transitively depend on python3-wheel (many via python3-build). To
avoid overwhelming the BTS, I am only adding an example affected
package. In general, Arch:all packages can never satisfy cross
Build-Depends unless marked M-A:foreign or annotated :native. Since
python3-wheel is a pure Python module its only dependency
(python3-packaging) already is marked M-A:foreign, the marking is also
applicable to python3-wheel. Please consider applying the attached
patch.
