Bug#888522: How to test cross build?

[Steven Robbins]

Hi Helmut,

I'm packaging a new Ipe version.  I'd like to fix the bug you reported (below).  
In order to test it: can you share the cross-build command you used?

Thanks,
-Steve

Bug 88522:
ipe fails to cross build from source, because its upstream build system
hard codes the build architecture pkg-config. dh_auto_build supplies the
host architecture pkg-config via the $PKG_CONFIG make variable. Once ipe
honours that variable, it cross builds successfully.
