Subject: xauth: Please mark Multi-Arch: foreign

Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2012 02:40:31 +0000

Package: xauth
Version: 1:1.0.7-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: crossbuild@debian.org
Usertags: cross

xauth is Architecture: any, but on a multiarch system it doesn't matter
which architecture you get as long as you can execute its binaries.
It's a build-dependency of 99 packages in unstable.  Accordingly, it
would be helpful to mark it Multi-Arch: foreign to avoid blocking
cross-builds of those packages; that would allow cross-builds to use the
version of xauth for the architecture being built on, which is generally
best for tools as opposed to libraries.

  * Mark xauth Multi-Arch: foreign.

So this was applied in March 2015, marking it as +pending [*]:

 https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-xorg/app/xauth.git/commit/?id=05316d3596f2f66fa1fa39a43318308f8c2179ea


[*] although, after all this time, I wonder if it be applied soon :)
