Hello! I forgot to mention following problem while running cross-install There are following messages:
Installing optional packages, this may take some time. - /home/proski/oldroot/dist/dhurd/admin/locales_2.1.1-7.deb dpkg did return unusual messages, please investigate: dpkg: `ldconfig' not found on PATH. dpkg: `start-stop-daemon' not found on PATH. dpkg: `update-rc.d' not found on PATH. dpkg: 3 expected program(s) not found on PATH. NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin. dpkg: `ldconfig' not found on PATH. dpkg: `start-stop-daemon' not found on PATH. dpkg: `update-rc.d' not found on PATH. dpkg: 3 expected program(s) not found on PATH. NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin. Why does dpkg try to run the above programs? I'm almost sure that it is not needed for cross-install. Is it possible to disable running external programs from dpkg? My solution was to make symlinks /sbin/ldconfig -> ~/bin/ldconfig /bin/true -> ~/bin/start-stop-daemon /bin/true -> ~/bin/update-rc.d I don't have start-stop-daemon and update-rc.d, because my Linux is RedHat (sorry, Debian fans).
