d33tahhi! hggdh pointed me here saying I could get help building wine. this fails on zeisty because of deps problems (missing packages): "sudo apt build-dep wine -a i386"18:06
d33tahwhat could I try?18:06
d33tahi tried adding arch to dpkg, libxml-simple-perl:i386 just doesn't seem to be there18:16
sladend33tah: please can you file a bug with the exact list of commeands to reproduce it, and the exact error message that you're getting.  A FTBFS is a worry18:17
d33tahsladen: it's not as much of a ftbfs as it is my inability to fetch build deps. perhaps maintainers have a way around that18:18
d33tahsudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt  build-dep wine -a i38618:19
sladend33tah: (I'm on a train, so can't test/check).  is the perl package an all-arch package?...18:19
d33tahsladen: nope, it varies by arch18:20
d33tah  Version table:18:20
d33tah *** 2.22-1 50018:20

d33tahwhoops. weird.18:21
d33tahso, yes, it looks like wine's trying to refer to i386 version of a package that's an allarch?18:21
cjwatsonnot everything is cross-buildable19:19
cjwatsonlibxml-simple-perl would likely need to be marked as Multi-Arch: foreign or some such to make progress, but the situation with perl modules has historically been complex and I don't recall whether that's made progress19:19
cjwatsonyou'd really be better off building that in a chroot rather than using the MUCH more complex cross-building machinery as you're currently trying to do19:20
