If your source has this bug, it'll only manifest itself on ARM during the ./configure stage where you'll see "checking how to recognise dependent libraries... file_magic ELF [0-9][0-9]*-bit [LM]SB (shared object|dynamic lib )" instead of checking how to recognise dependent libraries... pass_all It'd save us a hell of a lot of pain if we could test this without access to an ARM machine. I personally haven't heard of a solution; I guess parsing all the automake macros without an ARM version of libtool is too painful. > What's the recommended means of creating a new patch for the > debian/patches directory, using cdbs?
