[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#1115560: ofono-dev is wrongly marked Multi-Arch: foreign

[Helmut Grohne]

Package: ofono-dev
Version: 2.18-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs
Control: affects -1 + src:lomiri-indicator-network src:modem-manager-gui

The affected packages fail to cross build from source, because 
dbus-1.pc is not found. It is a transitive dependency via ofono-dev and 
it happens to be installed for the wrong architecture, because ofono-dev 
is marked Multi-Arch: foreign. Back in #893941, I requested that it be 
thus marked and at that time, I removed its dependencies to be able to 
do this and back then M-A:foreign was correct. It became incorrect when 
it gained the libdbus-1-dev dependency. Just dropping M-A:foreign will 
make #893941 return, so the way forward is to also change its 
Architecture from all to any to enable the package to transfer 
architecture constraints to its own dependencies. I'm attaching a patch 
for your convenience.

Flagging this as important, because it is violating a Debian policy 
draft.
