Subject: rbconfig.rb should contain triplet-prefixed tools

Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2020 22:06:57 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: libruby2.7
Version: 2.7.1-3
Tags: patch

I've looked into cross building ruby extensions again. With help from
Antonio Terceiro and Chris Hofstaedtler, we figured that we likely need
three changes to make this work:

 * gem2deb should pull a native ruby. Otherwise running ruby fails.
 * $something should cause ruby to use the host's rbconfig.rb.
 * The build should use cross compilers.

The last of these is a problem since the compilers used for building
extensions are those listed in rbconfig.rb. It currently lists CC -> gcc
and CXX -> g++. Since these are unqualified, they're unsuitable for
cross building.

If rbconfig.rb were mapping these to triplet-prefixed build tools (which
work both natively and during cross builds) and we were solving the
other aspects, we could likely cross build simple ruby extensions.

So here goes the patch that makes rbconfig.rb contain triplet-prefixed
tools. The hard part of making the build use the correct rbconfig.rb is
not yet solved.
