Package: lintian Severity: wishlist Hi,
please add a check for multi-arch: foreign -dbg packages. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec: | Multi-Arch: foreign | * The package is not co-installable with itself, but should be allowed | to satisfy the dependencies of a package of a different arch from | itself. The above seems to be wrong for -dbg packages. Sid currently contains one example for a "real" -dbg package, i.e., with debugging symbols; and one example for a transitional -dbg package, which also seems to be wrong: | $ < ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_main_binary-amd64_Packages perl -00 -ne 'print if /^Multi-Arch: f/m && /^Package:.*-dbg$/m' | egrep '^Package:|^Multi-Arch:|^Description:|Version:|^$' | Package: libva-intel-vaapi-driver-dbg | Version: 1.0.17-1 | Description: VAAPI driver for Intel G45 & HD Graphics family (transitional package) | Multi-Arch: foreign | | Package: libsqlite3-0-dbg | Version: 3.7.13-1 | Description: SQLite 3 debugging symbols | Multi-Arch: foreign Regards Carsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
