Bug#916329: pngmeta FTCBFS: builds for the wrong architecture
Source: pngmeta
Version: 1.11-9
Tags: patch
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap
pngmeta fails to cross build from source, because it configures for the
build architecture. The packaging does pass the relevant --host flag to
./configure, but ./configure is too old to recognize it. One should pass
a suitable CC here instead. Please consider applying the attached patch.
