Package: src:gcc-4.6
Version: 4.6.0-14
Severity: normal
Hi!
When building a cross compiler, there are two problems:
1. hardcoded use of gcc-4.4 without a declared build-dependency. This could
be fixed by adding the latter, however I see that it not only builds
correctly with gcc-4.6, but also that gcc-4.6 is now the default for all
architectures. What about trusting gcc-defaults? Since upstream tests gcc
on, well, gcc, being good enough for the rest of Debian means it should be
good enough for gcc itself.
2. dh_strip is used both on objects for the build and host arch. This does
not work. You'd need to either:
a) call either native or cross strip appropriately
b) build-depend on binutils-multiarch
c) Loic Minier suggested there is some way to force dh_strip to do a),
although for whatever reason it doesn't work in current unstable

Hi,
This bug should be fixed as a side-effect of the following
(experimental) change in 10.10.6:
"""
* Add experimental support for building some packages for "TARGET"
rather than "HOST" via the X-DH-Build-For-Type field. The field
is subject to removal and changes without notice. The field is
not considered by dpkg tooling and therefore you will still have
to manually work around tools like dpkg-gencontrol (even when
called via dh_gencontrol).
"""
Thanks,
~Niels
