[Bug 1175687] Re: Please mark rpm2cpio Multi-Arch: foreign

[Dave Walker]

Hello Mark, or anyone else affected,

Accepted rpm into raring-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rpm/4.10.1-2.1ubuntu1.1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

  Please mark rpm2cpio Multi-Arch: foreign

Status in “rpm” source package in Raring:

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Marking rpm2cpio "Multi-arch: foreign" will allow 32-bit packages to depend on rpm2cpio and install successfully on 64-bit releases of Ubuntu which have multi-arch support.

  Some 3rd party apps depend on rpm2cpio.

  [Test Case]
  Build and install i386 packages on amd64 and attempt to depend on rpm2cpio.

  [Regression Potential]
  Minimal as this packaging change only affects multiarch status.

  
  [Additional information]
  If accepted into Saucy, I'll submit patches for p, q, and r.
