Source: playerctl Version: 2.4.1-3 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: ftcbfs
playerctl fails to cross build from source, because it fails running the gtk-doc scanner. Fortunately, the documentation already has been separated to an arch:all package, so running the gtk-doc scanner is no longer necessary in arch-only builds such as cross builds. I'm attaching a patch that skips gtk-doc in arch-only builds and verified that an arch-only build produces the same .debs as a full build. Please consider applying the patch as it makes playerctl cross buildable. Helmut
