Subject: [PATCH 2/2] sbuild: do not build arch all packages on cross
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 12:47:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429104734.1447148-2-felix.moessbauer@siemens.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260429104734.1447148-1-felix.moessbauer@siemens.com>
Architecture all packages often cannot be built in cross mode, as the
dependencies cannot be resolved in the host architecture. This
especially applies to all packages which split their build dependencies
into Build-Depends-Arch and Build-Depends-Indep. We already have logic
in isar to built DPKG_ARCH=all packages non-cross, but this does not
work for packages that generate both arch specific and arch all binary
packages.
While sbuild automatically disables builds of arch-all packages on
cross, we previously explicitly overrode this setting. We now change
this by explicitly setting --no-arch-all flag on cross and --arch-all on
non-cross.

+### No building of arch=all packages when cross building
+
+Architecture all packages often cannot be built in cross mode, as the
+dependencies cannot be resolved in the foreign architecture. This especially
+applies to all packages which split their build dependencies into
+`Build-Depends-Arch` and `Build-Depends-Indep`. We already have logic
+in isar to built `DPKG_ARCH = "all"` packages non-cross, but this does not
+work for packages that generate both arch specific and arch all binary packages.
+
+We now explicitly disable building arch=all binary packages on cross (this
+technically only affects packages that generate arch specific and arch=all
+binary packages). To build the arch=all binary packages of such source packages,
+add an explicit dependency to `${BPN}-native`. Source packages that only
+generate `arch=all` packages, must now be marked `DPKG_ARCH = "all"`.
