[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#842563: mark libxfce4util-common Multi-Arch: foreign

[Helmut Grohne]

Package: libxfce4util-common
Version: 4.12.1-2
Tags: patch
User: helmutg at debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
Control: affects -1 + src:desktopnova src:exo src:garcon src:libxfce4ui src:libxfcegui4 src:parole src:ristretto src:thunar src:thunar-volman src:xfburn src:xfce4-appfinder src:xfce4-cpufreq-plugin src:xfce4-cpugraph-plugin src:xfce4-datetime-plugin src:xfce4-diskperf-plugin src:xfce4-equake-plugin src:xfce4-hdaps src:xfce4-indicator-plugin src:xfce4-mpc-plugin src:xfce4-notifyd src:xfce4-panel src:xfce4-places-plugin src:xfce4-power-manager src:xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin src:xfce4-settings src:xfce4-verve-plugin src:xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin src:xfce4-xkb-plugin src:xfconf src:xfdesktop4 src:xfwm4

The affected packages cannot satisfy their cross Build-Depends, because
their (transitive) dependency on libxfce4util-common is not satisfiable.
In general, Architecture: all packages cannot satisfy cross build
dependencies unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. In this case, such a
marking is correct, because libxfce4util-common does not have any
maintainer scripts or dependencies.

The attached patch also adds a Multi-Arch: same markings to
libxfce4util7, libxfce4util7-dbg and libxfce4util-dev. Of these, only
libxfce4util7 has maintainer scripts and those scripts are turned into
triggers on the next rebuild. Their content nicely lives on
architecture-specific paths or does not vary per architecture, so
marking them Multi-Arch: same is correct. Please consider applying the
full patch.
