Source: fwupdate
Version: 9-3
Tags: patch
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
fwupdate fails to cross build from source for a number of reasons:
1. It uses the build architecture objcopy, because dh_auto_build passes
neither OBJCOPY nor CROSS_COMPILE. While the CROSS_COMPILE variable
is somewhat general, it's not as widely adopted. dh_auto_build
explicitly sets tools such as CC or PKG_CONFIG. Explicitly passing
CROSS_COMPILE makes this part work.
2. The upstream build system hard codes the use of the build
architecture pkg-config. While it considers CROSS_COMPILE for other
tools (including CC, LD and OBJCOPY) it fails to do so for
pkg-config. I think this is an upstream bug and it should allow
substituting pkg-config just like the other tools.
3. It derives FWUP in efi/Makefile from ARCH and ARCH from CC.
Unfortunately, dh_auto_install doesn't pass CC (only dh_auto_build
does). Thus FWUP differs between build and install and thus tries to
build more stuff. An easy way to solve this is to simply pass
CROSS_COMPILE to make install as well.
After fixing all of the above, fwupdate cross builds successfully.
Please consider applying the attached patch.
Helmut
