[Bug 873584] Re: udev fails to cross-build with xdeb

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package udev - 173-0ubuntu5

---------------
udev (173-0ubuntu5) precise; urgency=low

  * Cross-build fixes based of patch by Colin Watson; LP: #873584.
    - Build deb and udeb flavors with
      --with-pci-ids-path=/usr/share/misc/pci.ids as this is required when
      cross-compiling but can safely be passed all the time.
    - Disable gtk-doc build when cross-compiling and exclude doc files when
      calling dh_install; building gtk-doc requires running a generated source
      (lt-gudev-scan) which is usually not possible when cross-compiling;
      should really be fixed to build this scanner with BUILD_CC instead, but
      this would require building whole projects twice too.
    - Also disable GObject introspection and exclude these files for the same
      reason as for gtk-doc (needs to run a scanner program which can't be run
      when cross-compiling).

Title:
  udev fails to cross-build with xdeb

Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  udev fails to cross-build due to xdeb failing to install cross-
  dependencies:

  Considering source package udev
  sudo apt-get -y --allow-unauthenticated -o Dir::State::Lists=/home/wookey/testing/build/build/xdeb/lists.apt -o Dir::Cache::pkgcache=/home/wookey/testing/build/build/xdeb/pkgcache.bin -o Dir::Cache::srcpkgcache=/home/wookey/testing/build/build/xdeb/srcpkgcache.bin -o Dir::Etc::sourcelist=/home/wookey/testing/build/build/xdeb/sources.list --no-install-recommends install gir1.2-glib-2.0-armel-cross libgirepository1.0-dev-armel-cross libglib2.0-dev-armel-cross libselinux1-dev-armel-cross libsepol1-dev-armel-cross libusb-dev-armel-cross

  Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
  requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
  distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
  or been moved out of Incoming.
  The following information may help to resolve the situation:

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   gir1.2-glib-2.0-armel-cross : Depends: libgirepository-1.0-1-armel-cross (>= 0.10.2) but it is not going to be installed
                                 Depends: libglib2.0-0-armel-cross (>= 2.28.0) but it is not going to be installed
   libgirepository1.0-dev-armel-cross : Depends: libgirepository-1.0-1-armel-cross (= 0.10.7-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
   libglib2.0-dev-armel-cross : Depends: libglib2.0-0-armel-cross (= 2.28.6-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
                                Depends: libpcre3-armel-cross (>= 8.10) but it is not installable

  This may be an issue of unclean build chroot rather than xdeb doing it
  wrong.

  Background:
  The build command is:
  xdeb --only-explicit -a armel --prefer-apt --apt-source --debug --force-rebuild udev

  The actual build command xdeb issues is:
  debuild --no-lintian -eUSER -eCONFIG_SITE=/etc/dpkg-cross/cross-config.armel -eDEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck -eGTEST_INCLUDEDIR=/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/include -eGTEST_LIBDIR=/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib -ePKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/share/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig -eDH_VERBOSE=1 -aarmel -b -uc -us -tc
