Version: 5.3.128~dfsg-2.1
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: cross-satisfiability
libpgm cannot be cross built from source, because it Build-Depends:
python3. What it requests here is the host architecture Python
interpreter, but installing it fails postinst, because it cannot be run
to byte compile the standard library. What libpgm really wanted is
running a build architecture Python interpreter for its
version_generator.py. This amounts to annotating the dependency :native.
I also note that a current sbuild build environment lacks devices such
as /dev/rtc and /dev/hpet. Therefore, the relevant functionality is
excluded from the build (even for native ones). I guess this is not what
is desired and recommend also adding:
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS),linux)
export ac_cv_file__dev_hpet=yes
export ac_cv_file__dev_rtc=yes
export ac_cv_file__proc_cpuinfo=yes
endif
Doing so preseed the check results and makes the build opt into the
relevant functionality. Of course doing so changes the build product.
