Source: cohomcalg
Version: 0.32+ds-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source
cohomcalg fails to cross build from source, because it uses the build
architecture linker. One has to pass LD as well.
I also noticed that it fails an arch-only build everywhere, because it
uses pdflatex without a suitable dependency. It seems like it shouldn't
be runing pdflatex during an arch-only build. Failing an arch-only
native build is a release-critical bug.
The attached patch fixes both. Please consider applying it.
