Hi Debian ALSA developers,

I want to prepare alsa-lib 1.0.19 for upload. Building alsa-lib on i386 and
amd64 gives:
...
checking for strip... strip
checking for cross-compiler... i486-i486-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
checking for i486-linux-gnu-gcc... i486-i486-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
make: *** [configure-biarch-stamp] Error 77
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules build gave error exit
status 2
debuild: fatal error at line 1319:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc failed
Command /bin/sh -c debuild "-rfakeroot" failed in <unknown>, how to
continue now? [Qri?]: q
Aborting.

The correct compiler should be: i486-linux-gnu-gcc and not
i486-i486-pc-linux-gnu-gcc!

From upstreams changelog:

"Don't use AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM, only use AC_CANONICAL_HOST"

Hmmm.

Building on ppc runs fine. Others I can't test. You can co the
version I tried from svn (r 2165):

svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-alsa/trunk/alsa-lib
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-alsa/trunk/alsa-lib/

The orig tgz must be loaded from:

wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/lib/alsa-lib-1.0.19.tar.bz2
tar jxf alsa-lib-1.0.19.tar.bz2
tar zcf alsa-lib-1.0.19.tar.gz alsa-lib-1.0.19
mv alsa-lib-1.0.19.tar.gz alsa-lib_1.0.19.orig.tar.gz

Any hints?

Thanks for cooperation

Elimar
