Hi,
Enough source packages (around 150) Build-Depend on help2man that it
would be very helpful to have it marked as "Multi-Arch: foreign", on the
basis that even though it's "Architecture: any" it doesn't matter which
architecture you get on a multiarch system as long as you can execute
the binary. This would make it easier to cross-build those packages.
The patch is trivial, but in case it helps:
* Make help2man Multi-Arch: foreign, so that it can satisfy
cross-build-dependencies.
