Bug#893943: xorgproto: mark all dummy packages Multi-Arch: foreign
Source: xorgproto
Version: 2018.4-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
Very many packages cannot be cross built anymore, because they have one
of those transitional dummy packages in their dependency closure. In
general, Architecture: all packages can never satisfy cross
Build-Depends unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. Such a marking is
correct, because these packages don't have any maintainer scripts and
their only dependency is marked Multi-Arch: foreign already. I am
setting the severity to important, because this is a regression with big
impact to cross building and bootstrapping architectures. Please fix
this quickly as the current state breaks the QA testing and thus hides
later failures. I am attaching a patch for your convenience.
Helmut
