[Aptitude-devel] Bug#699074: aptitude doesn't support foreign-architecture build-deps

Sun Jan 27 03:22:23 UTC 2013

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.9.1-1
Severity: wishlist
User: multiarch-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: multiarch

aptitude doesn't support installing foreign-architecture
build-dependencies for cross-compiling but apt-get does. aptitude's
interactivity would be very useful when resolving build-deps since it
would help show the reasons for things failing when they do.

# aptitude build-dep -aarmhf libicns
E: Command line option 'a' [from -aarmhf] is not known.
# apt-get build-dep -aarmhf libicns
