Package: multistrap Version: 2.2.9 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
The multiarch feature does not currently allow for metapackages to have foreign dependencies. For example, if you create a "my-system-configuration" package with dependencies on both armel and armhf packages then this will fail at the initial dependency step. The attached patch fixes this problem by adding the foreign architectures to the list of apt-recognized architectures (-o APT::Architectures::=<arch>). -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers xenial-updates APT policy: (500, 'xenial-updates'), (500, 'xenial-security'), (500, 'xenial'), (100, 'xenial-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-78-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages multistrap depends on: ii apt 1.2.20 ii libconfig-auto-perl 0.44-1 ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.07-1build1 ii libparse-debian-packages-perl 0.03-2 pn perl:any <none> multistrap recommends no packages.
