That's the problem I have with this patch - it depends on dpkg-dev. I believe this might make it unacceptable for upstream. I don't think cmake upstream can afford to ignore Debian or Ubuntu so they will eventually have to implement something to support our configuration. So it would be better if we worked with them from the start, then nobody would need to reinvent the wheel and everybody would be happy. However, I don't have much clue about multiarch at the moment. Technical details are sparse and required dpkg-dev is not even available in unstable. Neither debhelper is able to handle it yet. Therefore, I prefer to wait until dust settles down a bit and get things right. -- Modestas Vainius <mo...@debian.org>
