It is an acceptable solution. However, such dramatic change should be discussed with upstream, because debian should really not carry such big changes. I would suggest a step-by-step progress, eg uploading first with the patch I proposed (converting imagemagick to M-A: foreign and the shared libs to M-A: same) and work for a good solution for the -dev packages later. I mean, I'd like to get at least those changes to debian this year, rather than a perfect solution next year :) > I see this > http://blogs.gnome.org/jamesh/2005/07/04/pkg-config-vs-cross-compile-and-multi-arch/ > but pkg-config cross does not work for me :S That is quite old comment, multiarch cross work of pkg-config in debian will be quite differently implemented. Eg you would run arm-linux-gnueabi-pkgconfig, the same way you run arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc for cross-compiling gcc. Riku -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
