I'm sorry. This fell through the cracks somehow, but you're still looking for an answer, right? You need to locate all users of debcrossgen and fix them individually. A very easy way of doing so is using codesearch: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=debcrossgen&literal=1 - debhelper is the place you really want to fix + glib2.0 is a false positive and no longer runs it directly - mesa, monado and phosh call debcrossgen for gitlab-ci So that's probably sending 4 distinct patches. The most important one is debhelper. I think all Debian package builds run debcrossgen via debhelper. I think this should be reasonably simple, see: https://sources.debian.org/src/debhelper/13.10.1/lib/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/meson.pm/?hl=70#L70 Helmut

This means that the packaging tools should switch from calling debcrossgen to `meson env2mfile` as described in this bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1017436 Dunno what is the correct way to get that fixed, though...
