Bug#823593: liblivemedia FTCBFS: uses build architecture compiler

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: liblivemedia
Version: 2016.04.01-1
Tags: patch

Dear multimedia maintainers,

I tried cross building liblivemedia for armhf and noticed that it was
using the build architecture compiler instead of the host architecture
compiler. You can find a failing build log for ppc64el at
https://subdivi.de/~helmut/debomatic-logs/liblivemedia_2014.01.13-1_ppc64el.build

Since liblivemedia does not use autoconf or similar, debhelper does not
take care to supply the compiler automatically. In this particular case,
setting up CC and CXX is sufficient to getting the build working. I am
attaching a patch doing just that. Please consider applying it.

Helmut
