The affected packages transitively depend on x11-xkb-utils for both the
build architecture and the host architecture. Such dependencies can only
be satisfied when the binary package is marked Multi-Arch: foreign.
Such a marking is mostly correct, because x11-xkb-utils contains only
command line utilities whose behaviour is architecture-independent. It
does not have any maintainer scripts and exposure of shared libraries >generally does not contribute to architecture awareness. The only
remaining piece of architecture awareness is the location of xkbcomp.pc. >Fortunately, it does not vary per architecture, so moving it to >/usr/share/pkgconfig resolves that as well. After doing so, a
Multi-Arch: foreign marking should be correct. The move and the marking
are implemented in the attached patch. Please consider applying it.
