Hello,

2017-05-09 19:38 Helmut Grohne:

Package: elinks-data
Version: 0.12~pre6-12
Tags: patch
User: helm...@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap

elinks cannot be installed for non-native architectures, because its
dependency on elinks-data would be unsatisfiable. In general,
Architecture: all packages can never satisfy dependencies from
non-native architectures unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. In this
case, such a marking is correct, because elinks-data does not have any
maintainer scripts nor dependencies. The same holds for elinks-doc. The
attached patch marks both of them Multi-Arch: foreign. Please consider
applying it after stretch is released.


Could this fix be applied now, after the realease?

It looks like a net improvement in the package, in any case, and would
enable to cross-build a few packages [1].


Cheers.


[1] perhaps those should have elinks as build-depends-indep instead of
   build-depends, but that's another question.
