apt-get -aarmhf build-dep binutils

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 gettext:armhf : Depends: gettext-base:armhf but it is not going to be installed
 quilt : Depends: gettext but it is not going to be installed
E: Build-dependencies for binutils could not be satisfied.
Failed to get cross build-deps

This needs a trivial fix:
append ':any' to the gettext build-dependency
