Package: libc6-dev-mips64el-cross Version: 2.36-8cross2 Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, I'm trying to build a cross-compiling environment for mips64el on my x86 VM. The Dockerfile is in this form: ``` FROM dockcross/base:latest ENV ARCH=mips ENV SUBARCH=mips ENV DEBIAN_ARCH=mips64el ENV CROSS_TRIPLET=mips64el-linux-gnuabi64 # Add the cross compiler sources RUN echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list && \ dpkg --add-architecture ${DEBIAN_ARCH} RUN apt-install \ crossbuild-essential-${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libc6-dev-${DEBIAN_ARCH}-cross \ libc6-${DEBIAN_ARCH}-cross \ libbz2-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libexpat1-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ ncurses-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libssl-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ protobuf-c-compiler \ protobuf-compiler \ python3-protobuf \ libnl-3-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libprotobuf-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libnet-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libprotobuf-c-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libcap-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libaio-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} \ libnl-route-3-dev:${DEBIAN_ARCH} # Compile my stuff... ``` The error message received is: libc6-dev:mips64el : Breaks: libc6-dev-mips64el-cross (< 2.37~) but 2.36-8cross2 is to be installed IMHO, The root of the problem is that while libc6-dev:mips64el has been updated to version 2.37-7 in the unstable release, the libc6-dev-mips64el-cross remains at version 2.36-8cross2 in both stable and unstable releases, leading to dependency issue. Notably, most other architectures have updated their unstable versions of lib6-dev-${arch}-cross to 2.37-3cross1, such as arm64, armhf, s390x, and so on. Is it possible to upgrade lib6-dev-mips64el-cross to a new version, or change the dep requirements of lib6-dev:mips64el in unstable release? Thanks a lot :)
