Partially. You replaced the install -s invocation with dh_strip and the
dh_strip knows how cross works, but the ./configure invocation is left
unchanged and thus still configures for the build architecture. Often
enough indirecting "./configure" via "dh_auto_configure --" solves this,
but liblockfile uses very old autotools that may necessitate setting CC
explicitly.
I ran 'autoconf' to generate a new 'configure', that hadn't been done
this millenium yet, so it was about time :)
I stripped down debian/rules to just override_dh_auto_configure like you
proposed, and an override for fixperms. That seems to do the trick;
without explicitly setting the architecture the library files end up in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu now.
I'm going to work on fixing the other bugs that are still open, then
I'll release 1.11.
Thanks for the help so far!
Mike.
