Package: docbook-xsl-ns
Version: 1.79.1+dfsg-2
Tags: patch
User: debian-cr...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: cross-satisfiability
Control: affects -1 + src:colord src:gdcm src:iputils src:kildclient src:nsis
src:package-update-indicator src:xmlstarlet src:xwrited
The affected packages fail to satisfy their cross build dependencies,
because their dependency on docbook-xsl-ns is unsatisfiable. In general,
Architecture: all packages can never satisfy cross build dependencies
unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign or annotated :native. In this case,
the foreign marking is reasonable:
* docbook-xsl is already thus marked and docbook-xsl-ns is very
similar.
* docbook-xsl-ns is not proposed by the multiarch hinter, because it
has maintainer scripts and the hinter cannot understand them.
Inspecting them reveals that they only update the super catalog,
which is an architecture-independent operation.
Please consider applying the attached patch.
