[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#777204: sbuild is unable to handle source packages with build dependencies using the :native architecture qualifier

[Johannes Schauer]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.65.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

currently sbuild will not allow building source packages using the
:native architecture qualifier as specified in [1]. This is because it
will copy any foo:native build dependency into the dummy binary package
it creates and the :native architecture qualifier is not allowed in
binary package dependencies.

The attached patch fixes this by doing the following:

It goes through all build dependencies and checks if they use the
:native architecture qualifier and if yes, either removes it in case of
a native build or replaces it by an architecture qualifier of the build
architecture in case of a cross build.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
