Package: gnu-efi Version: 4.0.0-1 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: ftcbfs Control: affects -1 + src:fwupd-efi Control: block -1 by 1125736 1125737 1125739 1125740
fwupd-efi fails to cross build from source, because it fails finding gnu-efi. During cross compilation, pkg-config does not search /usr/lib/pkgconfig. Unfortunately, that's where gnu-efi presently installs. The solution is to install to a multiarch directory instead. Unfortunately, a number of dependent packages are not quite prepared for this move. I've filed patches for them (to cope with both a future multiarch and a present non-multiarch gnu-efi). Once they're fixed, this patch can be applied. Helmut
