Re: dh_strip failing on cross-compilation

[Ole Wolf <wolf@blazingangles.com>]

Quoting Neil Williams <codehelp@debian.org>:

For amd64 to i386, create an i386 chroot with debootstrap and build the
package inside that chroot. This ONLY works for particular combinations
of architectures and amd64 -> i386 is one of those pairs. i386 -> amd64
is NOT the same thing.

Yes, I expected that amd64 to i386 would be virtually completely supported out of the (64-bit) box.

Until now, I've only used chroot to save a wrecked system, but it turned out it was reasonably simple to set up, and it works like a charm. Thanks!
