Dear Maintainer, fontforge is typically used to generate and process fonts at buildtime, the output that is produced by fontforge under such conditions is platform independant. There are packages that build-depend on fontforge, and thus to enable cross-compilation of those, it would help to mark fontforge / fontforge-nox packages as Multi-Arch: foreign, similar to other build-tools, e.g. automake, autoconf, et. al. Something like below patch should be sufficient: diff -Nru fontforge-20120731.b/debian/control fontforge-20120731.b/debian/control --- fontforge-20120731.b/debian/control 2013-11-02 18:52:10.000000000 +0000 +++ fontforge-20120731.b/debian/control 2013-12-20 23:11:54.000000000 +0000 @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ Package: fontforge Architecture: any +Multi-Arch: foreign Depends: ${misc:Depends}, fontforge-common (= ${source:Version}), libfontforge1 (= ${binary:Version}), @@ -55,6 +56,7 @@ Package: fontforge-nox Architecture: any +Multi-Arch: foreign Depends: ${misc:Depends}, fontforge-common (= ${source:Version}), libfontforge1 (= ${binary:Version}), -- Regards, Dimitri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
