[Debichem-devel] Bug#959825: libwildmagic FTCBFS: uses the build architecture compiler

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: libwildmagic
Version: 5.13-1.1
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs

libwildmagic fails to cross build from source, because it does not pass
cross tools to make. Beyond that, libwildmagic is a bit unconventional
in that it uses the CC variable (normally used for the C compiler) to
record a C++ compiler. Thus we need to pass the compiler explicitly and
seed it appropriately from dpkg's buildtools.mk.  Please consider
applying the attached patch.
