This is half correct :) I suggest to just refer to dpkg-architecture(1), as the technical details may change. In particular, you should not use the variables without initializing them DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE := $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) etc In general, I support a proposal that encourages cross compilation. I am not sure about the wording, and how much technical details it should contain. (But I can't make a better suggestion right now). Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
