Package: sharutils
Version: 1.3.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: helm...@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap

When cross building gcc-4.8 I get the following error:

dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: ... sharutils ...

I get this error even though sharutils is installed and the desired version
(build architecture) is installed. The dependency is not fulfilled, because
sharutils lacks the Multi-Arch: foreign declaration.

Please consider the attached patch.

Helmut
