Source: suitesparse
Version: 1:7.10.1+dfsg-1
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: cross-satisfiability
suitesparse fails to cross build from source, because its build
dependency on gfortran is not satisfiable. Generally, bare toolchain
names are not satisfiable in cross builds as they do not indicate what
architecture it is being used for. We need to annotate such dependencies
indicating whether they are needed for the build or host architecture.
In this case, it should be gfortran-for-host.
Note that merely replacing the package name is not enough. It'll work
for cross builds but break native builds. The -for-host variant does not
provide the bare toolchain name. You may not run it as "gfortran" (even
when building natively). Instead, ${DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE}-gfortran must be
used. We sought for alternative solutions, but every other alternative
degrades some other use case. That said, adding the architecture prefix
is never wrong and hence we now recommend being explicit over being
implicit.
I'm attaching a patch for your convenience. It happens to also reduce
Build-Depends a bit more to get the Python stuff removed from the
arch-only build.
I do not consider the patch appropriate for inclusion in trixie. It is
meant for forky.
