It's versioning logic. Older dpkg-cross used to have other default paths, so something should be done to avoid packages created by older dpkg-cross to satisfy dependences of packages created by newer dpkg-cross. Do you mean it works incorrectly in some cases? If so, I'm interested in details ... > Also, would you welcome patches that add the ability to handle packages > built with alternative libc > implementations, namely uClibc, Dietlibc and Newlib? Your patches are welcome. I thought that best way to handle other libc's is introducing other 'architectures', like i386-uclibc. Then tools could just cross-compile for this 'architecture'. Nikita
