Hi,
2016-10-15 16:20 Helmut Grohne:
Source: libcap-ng
Version: 0.7.7-3
Tags: patch
User: helm...@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
libcap-ng fails to cross build from source, because its dependencies
require installing a host architecture python, whose postinst fails.
Indeed, libcap-ng should not request a host architecture python but only
request a host architecture python-dev. The attached patch fixes those
dependencies and makes libcap-ng cross build including the python
extensions.
This patch conflicts with my patch in #831362, but the conflict is
pretty simple to resolve. The patches fix orthogonal issues:
* This one allows cross building full libcap-ng.
* #831362 allows building libcap-ng without python (cross or native).
This package is quite important for bootstrapping new architectures and
it's a real annoyance to have to edit out the dependencies for Python in
preliminary stages.
I am submitting an NMU to delayed/15, debdiff attached, with the
combined patches (please Helmut double-check if this is the final form
that it was intended).
If you want me to cancel the NMU just ask.
(BTW, I checked that there are no related lintian warnings that were
mentioned in #831362).
Cheers.
