Hello,

AIUI, the unifont-bin package behaves the same on any architecture since
it only acts on font files in an architecture-independent way?  If so,
could you mark it Multi-Arch: foreign, so that packages depending on it
(e.g. bterm-unifont) can be cross-compiled?

Thanks,
Samuel

Pinging on this, because unifont-bin is a build-dependency for the
debian installer, and since unifont build-depend on wxwidgets,
that uselessly makes wxwidgets an indirect build-dependency of
debian-installer.

In #1054278 I suggested removing unifont-viewer, which seems to be the
only thing that uses libwx-perl.
