Package: util-linux
Version: 2.29.1-1
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/whereis

Dear Maintainer,

On other systems, including old releases of Debian, the command
`whereis libc.so` will return the paths to libc.so *and* libc.a
On Debian, this only works for non-multiarch'ed libraries.

Although the man page only says "binary", it also includes libraries,
as shown by `whereis -l`.
