Package: apt-cross Version: 0.13.4 Severity: important
I run Debian in a French locale and this causes apt-cross to not find any dependency. To reproduce run this test (you may need to first add the French locale with dpkg-reconfigure locales): # LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 apt-cross -a i386 -n -i libxt-dev The following NEW packages will be built and installed: libxt-dev 0 to be upgraded, 1 to be newly installed. # LANG= apt-cross -a i386 -n -i libxt-dev The following NEW packages will be built and installed: debianutils gcc-4.4-base libc-bin libc6 libgcc1 libice-dev libice6 libpam-modules libpam0g libpthread-stubs0 libpthread-stubs0-dev libselinux1 libsm-dev libsm6 libuuid1 libx11-6 libx11-dev libxau-dev libxau6 libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libxdmcp-dev libxdmcp6 libxt-dev libxt6 passwd x11proto-core-dev x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev xtrans-dev 0 to be upgraded, 30 to be newly installed. Needless to say, this makes apt-cross essentially unusable if one does not know the magic 'LANG=' workaround, hence the priority 'important'. This bug is also present in apt-cross 0.12.0 (in Debian 5.0.5). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apt-cross depends on: ii apt 0.7.25.3 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii dpkg-cross 2.5.8 tools for cross compiling Debian p ii dpkg-dev 1.15.7.2 Debian package development tools ii libcache-apt-perl 0.13.4 object oriented apt cache perl bin ii libconfig-auto-perl 0.20-2 Magical config file parser ii libdebian-dpkgcross-perl 2.5.8 functions to aid cross-compiling D ii libparse-debcontrol-perl 2.005-2 Easy OO parsing of Debian control- ii libparse-debian-packages-perl 0.01-2 parse the data from a Debian Packa ii libterm-progressbar-perl 2.09-5 Perl module to print a progress ba ii libwww-perl 5.836-1 Perl HTTP/WWW client/server librar ii perl 5.10.1-13 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii sudo 1.7.2p7-1 Provide limited super user privile apt-cross recommends no packages. apt-cross suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- debsums errors found: debsums: changed file /var/lib/apt-cross/multiarch.list (from apt-cross package) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
