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
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 crawl : Depends: libc6 (>= 2.27) but 2.24-11+deb9u1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


It's annoying, but at least I can build it myself...

Shouldn't the maintainer build on Debian Stable to prevent this? I assume this would still be compatible with the newest Ubuntu etc. but I'm not an expert, maybe it's more complicated than that.

Or maybe I'm the only one on Stretch using this, in which case carry on.

Anyhow thanks for all the work.

Can you try doing `apt-get update` and try again? This was my first time building the debs, so I set up the chroot wrong and built against ubuntu, rather than debian stable; sometime yesterday evening I uploaded fixed debs. (It is indeed supposed to be build against debian stable/stretch.)
