Bug#360028: grub: FTBFS (amd64): Failed to satisfy Build-Depends dependency for grub: ia32-libs-dev

[Andreas Jochens]

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-6
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

When building 'grub' on amd64/unstable, I get the following error:

Building grub unstable main amd64...
Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Package ia32-libs-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  lib32z1-dev ia32-libs
E: Package ia32-libs-dev has no installation candidate
E: Failed to satisfy Build-Depends dependency for grub: ia32-libs-dev

With the attached patch, which replaces ia32-libs-dev by libc6-dev-i386
in debian/control, 'grub' can be built on amd64.

Regards
Andreas Jochens
