Title:
  FTBFS: add multiarch meta-data to docbook

Status in “docbook” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Body:

  Any package 'X' build-depending on docbook cannot be
  cross-built because apt-get build-dep -a<arch> cannot satisfy the
  X's build-dependencies until 

  Multi-Arch: foreign

  is added to docbook's control file, to indicate that docbook from any
  available arch will satisfy the dependency.

  There are 124 packages which build-depend on docbook in main and 572
  in universe. None of them will be multiarch cross-buildable without
  this fix.

   affects ubuntu/docbook
