Package: gazebo
Version: 7.3.0+dfsg-3
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

The most recent version of gazebo added a build-dependency on 
libkido-dev to the source package and added a binary on libkido-dev to 
libgazebo7-dev

No mention of this was made in the changelog and no other changes in the 
upload seem to be related but 
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-science/packages/gazebo.git/commit/?id=80f9a218ccebb32258812afdf1cce6b50ab88126 
indicates this was to add support for a new feature.

libkido-dev is only available on a handful of architectures. As a result 
this new (build-)dependency is blocking the migration of the new version 
of the package (and hence the FTBFS fix) to testing.

The attatched patch restricts the (build-)dependencies on libkido-dev to 
the architectures where it is actually available (amd64, arm64, i386, 
ppc64el and alpha)
