Hi Matthias,

thanks for merging my -for-host work. I'm looking into making practical
use of it and a major issue is the following dependency:

$FRONTEND-$VERSION-for-host:$DEB_HOST_ARCH -> $FRONTEND-$VERSION-$DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE (= ${gcc:Version})

While this works nicely for native compilers, trying to use the
-for-host package with a cross toolchain is doomed to fail, because it
always has different version. The equal constraint is too strict to make
practical use of these -for-host packages. I think we should change (=
${gcc:Version}) to (>= ${gcc:SoftVersion}) as is done elsewhere. Do you
agree?

I'm attaching the obvious patch.

Helmut
