Hi Andrius,

osra Fails to cross-build because it uses a home-grown configure command instead of debhelper tooling. It seems this is because upstream
discourages the use of this as documented in https://sourceforge.net/p/osra/bugs/20/

The current command misses the --host option which it would need to
prefix the relevant triplets. Along with this, the install option in
configure tries to pass a `-s` with install to strip the binary.

This would try to do it as the build arch and hence fails. Instead,
dh_strip from debhelper already takes care of it so this should not be
needed and we can just pass the strip-program to be "true".

The patch at the end of the mail gets osra cross-building.
Please consider applying.

Best,
Nilesh
