Package: libc6-dev-i386,libc6-dev-s390
Severity: normal
Justification: undeclared cross architecture file conflict cannot be 
experienced using apt

Hi Aurelien,

while looking into non-amd64 /usr-move issues, I noticed that
technically speaking libc6-dev-i386 and libc6-dev-s390 have an
undeclared file conflict. Since libc6-dev-s390 depends on libc6-s390 and
that happens to conflict with libc6-i386, you cannot experience this
conflict when using apt. Technically though, you may dpkg --unpack a
libc6-dev-s390 on a system that has libc6-dev-i386 unpacked and doing so
fails.

I suggest that libc6-dev-i386 declares "Conflicts: libc6-dev-s390" to
make this explicit. It can reasonably be mutual. The main benefit of
this change is helping QA tools that diagnose undeclared file conflicts.

Thanks for considering

Helmut

The fix is still present on the glibc side, so closing the bug again.
