Try to disable the feature in the package. ## <a name="broken_libc6_dependency"> broken libc6 dependency </a> Some packages use an erroneous dependency on `libc6-dev`. This is incorrect because `libc6` is specific to GNU/Linux. The corresponding package for GNU is `libc0.3-dev` but other OSes will have different ones. You can locate the problem in the `debian/control` file of the source tree. Typical solutions include detecting the OS using `dpkg-architecture` and hardcoding the soname, or better, use a logical OR. eg: `libc6-dev | libc0.3-dev | libc-dev`. The `libc-dev` is a virtual package that works for any soname but you have to put it only as the last option. + +## <a name="parport"> <linux/parport.h> <linux/ppdev.h> </a> + +There is no programming interface for the parallel port on GNU/Hurd yet. |
