Hi, 2016-09-03 13:10 Helmut Grohne:
[...] Hi, xserver-xorg-dev makes the aforementioned affected packages fail to cross build from source, because pkg-config does not consider[1] /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ during cross compilation. In contrast, it always considers /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/pkgconfig, so moving xorg-server.pc there will make both native and cross builds happy. The requested change is implemented in the attached patch for your convenience.
How do you feel about applying this patch to help with cross-compilation and (re)bootstrapping? If it helps, I can prepare a NMU for it. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
