Source: libzerg-perl Version: 1.0.4-9 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: ftcbfs
libzerg-perl fails to cross build from source, because debian rules overrides LD containing a build architecture compiler. It does so to pass suitable LDFLAGS and queries perl for the linker name. Unfortunately, that does not consider the host architecture at hand. Instead, I suggest deferring the task to dpkg's buildtools.mk. Once doing so, libzerg-perl cross builds successfully. Helmut
