Title:
  Texinfo needs gettext:any in build-deps to install cross-dependencies

Status in “texinfo” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  apt-get -a <arch> build-dep texinfo fails because the build-arch
  version of gettext is needed for the build, but gettext is Mulit-Arch:
  Allowed in Ubuntu and that means the plain dependency bring in the
  host-arch version.

  A trivial patch fixes this problem (and won't break anything else).
