Bug#1018009: coinor-cbc FTCBFS: configures for the build architecture

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: coinor-cbc
Version: 2.10.8+ds1-1
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs

coinor-cbc fails to cross build from source, because it does not pass
--host to ./configure. The easiest way of doing so - using
dh_auto_configure - is unfortunately not applicable, because ./configure
does not understand --runstatedir. That's probably the reason why it
isn't being used. So the next best thing is passing the flag (together
with --build) explicitly. If you happen to switch to dh_auto_configure
later for a newer configure, you can drop them. The other issue is hard
coding the build architecture strip. Once fixing both, coinor-cbc cross
builds. Please consider applying the attached patch.
