Hi all, after some delay I've check-in the APT and dpkg-checkbuilddeps functionality in CVS under the branch-debian_version_1_22. You can also find prebuild Debian packages at http://einstein.speech-design.de/~br/dpkg-cross After excessive testing (delayed the check-in) I'm happy to announce a working APT and dpkg-checkbuilddeps implementation for dpkg-cross. It make fun to use it, really ;) One advice. You have to remove all previous *-arch-* packages because dpkg-cross uses a much more stronger package dependency mechanism then before. The older dependencies may corrupt the algorithm used. Using package information provided by APT it was possible to recognise packages which are dedicated for development purposes and which are not. Ok, it was not so easy but I think I found a sophisticated algorithm to achieve this. Please feal free to test and report bugs to me so I can continue on improving the implementation. For all those who are looking for apt-build support. I can clam them down. After some little modification I was already able to build packages using it. I think I will make some patches awailabe as bug reports agains apt-build to make a default functionality. Happy testing and thx for this great tool :) -- Raphael Bossek
