[debhelper-devel] Bug#641051: debhelper: cmake and multiarch -- another possible patches

[Tomasz Buchert]

Hi everybody,

what is the status of this? I'm trying to pass multiarch library path
in a clean way. I noticed that CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set to
the arch triplet internally and so I can use it to patch upstream [1].

However, I also noticed that I *can't* set it to anything custom in
dh_auto_configure, as it is overwritten by cmake. I think it may pose
problems while cross-compiling, right? A possible solution would be to
push a patch upstream that respects CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
provided manually.

I think that for now I'll pass the triplet via my own custom variable
(just to be on the safe side).

Tomasz
