I try to move a VirtualBox VM to a docker image. We use the VirtualBox to crosscompile source code for a armhf device (something based on a BeagleBone)
I got problems at RUN apt-get install -y build-essential:armhf
The complete Docker code looks like this:
FROM debian:jessie
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade
RUN apt-get install -y build-essential module-assistant curl git cmake
RUN curl http://emdebian.org/tools/debian/emdebian-toolchain-archive.key | apt-key add -
RUN echo "deb http://emdebian.org/tools/debian jessie main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/crosstools.list
RUN dpkg --add-architecture armhf
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y crossbuild-essential-armhf
RUN apt-get install -y curl:armhf
RUN apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev:armhf openssl:armhf
RUN apt-get install -y build-essential:armhf
RUN apt-get install -y libssl-dev:armhf
I get the following error when running docker build:
Step 12/13 : RUN apt-get install -y build-essential:armhf
---> Running in ca5a82d30cc7

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
build-essential:armhf : Depends: gcc:armhf (>= 4:4.9.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: g++:armhf (>= 4:4.9.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: make:armhf
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
The command '/bin/sh -c apt-get install -y build-essential:armhf' returned a non-zero code: 100
If i do look at the bash history on the VM it looks the same. What is the problem with my Docker code?

This is the line causing problems:
You don’t need
build-essential:armhf
to cross-compile. You should remove that;docker build
should then be able to build a container without issue.
