Bug#751338: pkg-kde-tools: mark binary pkg-kde-tools with M-A:foreign
Package: pkg-kde-tools
Version: 0.15.13
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
Dear Maintainer,
pkg-kde-tools currently causes a number of packages to have
unsatisfiable cross-Build-Depends, because it is Arch:all without
M-A:foreign. Affected source packages include:
attica phonon grantlee qca2 libgc qtbase-opensource-src polkit-qt-1
phonon-backend-gstreamer qt4-x11 soprano qjson qt-assistant-compat
strigi libiodbc2 qtbase-opensource-src mozjs qtwebkit
It seems that the scripts contained in pkg-kde-tools do already support
multiarch and cross-compilation. In addition Ubuntu treats all Arch:all
packages as M-A:foreign in Build-Depends and has not reported on
problems. It appears that adding M-A:foreign is safe here.
Thanks for considering
Helmut
