Package: debianutils Version: 4.2.2 Tags: patch User: multiarch-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: multiarch
As part of making debian 'bootstrappable' we are making sure that at least the core system is cross-buildabale. For build-dependencies to work properly under multiarch this package needs to be marked Multi-Arch: foreign so that it can satisfy a build-depenedency for any architecture. See http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/CrossDependencies and http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation for explanation and background. There are 4 packages which build-depend on this package. None of them will be multiarch cross-buildable without this fix. This same change also fixes the different Ubuntu bug: https://launchpad.net/bugs/933051 Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Emdebian, Wookware, Balloonboard, ARM http://wookware.org/
