Source: libcoverart
Version: 1.0.0+git20150706-9
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ftcbfs
libcoverart fails to cross build from source, because it does not pass
previously built IMPORT_EXECUTABLES to cmake. This is necessary when
performing cross compilation. It's a separate cmake invocation with a
native toolchain and produces the make-c-interface program. Just adding
that pass does not exactly work though. libcoverart uses neon and neon
is not coinstallable, so we cannot provide it to the native build pass.
Thus my patch adds an option BUILD_IMPORT_EXECUTABLES_ONLY that
basically disables everything but make-c-interface. Building that tool
requires libxml2-dev (for the build architecture!), which was previously
missing from Build-Depends. The attached patch makes libcoverart cross
buildable. Please consider applying it.
