[Bug 1252728] [NEW] crossbuild-essential-armhf is not installable

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

Public bug reported:

$ mk-sbuild --target armhf trusty

fails with:

Note, selecting 'libc6-dev:armhf' instead of 'libc-dev:armhf'
build-essential is already the newest version.
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:
 libc6-dev:armhf : Depends: libc6:armhf (= 2.17-93ubuntu4) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


I didn't manage to figure out any sensible ways to resolve the unmet dependencies.
