Juhey! It would be nice if you could two join the debian-multiarch project on alioth: https://alioth.debian.org/projects/multiarch/ I've done some work on the dpkg side and library packages in the past and I will be updating the patches there for the Linuxtag Mini-Debconf talk I'm giving. I'm hoping to again provide a apt repository there that is A) [c]debootstrapable and B) fully multiarchified. However far I get with what will be there next month a multiarch capable apt could actualy be practically tested.
