Source: amd-aie-rt Version: 2026.1.1+dfsg-2 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: ftcbfs
amd-aie-rt fails to cross build from source for two distinct reasons. The first reason is rooted in its cpputest dependency. That package depends on a library development package but is itself marked Multi-Arch: foreign. This is an RC bug and I'm filing it separately. As a result, the development package is installed for the build architecture when it is actually needed for the host architecture. As it happens, amd-aie-rt does not actually need any of the scripts and examples contained in cpputest. What is contained in libcpputest-dev is sufficient for building amd-aie-rt, so reducing the dependency helps with cross building. The other reason is rooted in the use-system-liburing.patch. It introduces a use of PKG_CONFIG into the Makefiles driven from the CMake build system. When debhelper detects CMake, it does not export PKG_CONFIG and other variables, so liburing is not found. What would be better here is locating liburing in CMake and linking the detected library. Rather than fixing the patch, I suggest explicitly exporting PKG_CONFIG. The attached patch includes both changes and makes amd-aie-rt cross buildable. Please consider applying an/or improving it. Helmut
