Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.21.9 File: /usr/share/dpkg/buildtools.mk X-Debbugs-Cc: Enrico Zini <enr...@debian.org>
Hi Guillem, Enrico discovered, that the FC variable initialized by dpkg's buildtools.mk points at f77. During native builds this works, but during cross builds it becomes triplet-f77, which doesn't exist and isn't managed using update-alternatives. Indeed, there are different providers of f77. Does it really make sense to refer to a name provided by update-alternatives at build time where we want to minimize influence of the environment? (I think buildinfo does not track update-alternatives choices.) Does it make more sense to use e.g. gfortran (as that's basically used everywhere) or does it make more sense to provide those triplet-f77 as well? Helmut
