Bug#981276: pexec FTCBFS: help2man
Source: pexec
Version: 1.0~rc8-4
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross@lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs
pexec fails to cross build from source, because it uses help2man. Given
that pexec has very little dependencies, we can add a native build pass
for generating the manual page before performing the cross build. Please
consider applying the attached patch.
