Version: 6.11b+1.dfsg-1.1
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ftcbfs
xppaut fails to cross build from source. The immediate failure happens
when it tries to run the build architecture strip. Beyond breaking cross
compilation, this also breaks DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip as well as
generation of -dbgsym packages. A good solution is making strip
substitutable and substituting an noop strip as dh_strip will take care
of handling it properly. While at it, I noticed that the Makefile also
stuffs compiler flags into the CC variable, which get overridden by
dh_auto_build. So I also moved them to CFLAGS. Please consider applying
the attached patch to fix all of the mentioned issues.
