Common Problems
./configure – If used, add support for cross-compiling to debian/rules using --build and --host with values from dpkg-architecture. (Not CDBS.)
-nodocs & -nocheck – Please add support via DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS or ./configure.
idempotent options – avoid trying to patch or clean a file that cannot be generated in a cross-build.
internal objects – if the package builds a program to do an internal task during the build, provide a way to do the task without executing compiled code or to avoid the task completely.
Notes:
Skip for debconf
