Bug#695086: x11-xserver-utils: Please mark Multi-Arch: foreign



Package: x11-xserver-utils
Version: 7.7~3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: crossbuild@debian.org
Usertags: cross

x11-xserver-utils is Architecture: any, but on a multiarch system it
doesn't matter which architecture you get as long as you can execute its
binaries.  It's a build-dependency of five packages in unstable.
Accordingly, it would be helpful to mark it Multi-Arch: foreign to avoid
blocking cross-builds of those packages; that would allow cross-builds
to use the version of x11-xserver-utils for the architecture being built
on, which is generally best for tools as opposed to libraries.

  * Mark x11-xserver-utils Multi-Arch: foreign.
