Thanks a lot for the corrections. After apt-file update I can indeed see libc6 and two additional packages, scidavis and ugene. About /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, does that mean that the Policy has to list exceptions, (for files or packages ?), or that the proposal is obsolete ? For the architectures, I was puzzled that Russ mentionned ‘with architecture amd64’ in his proposal and tried to not discard this information. What achitectures, or which packages in which architectures, should be listed as exceptions ? I will update the patch or remove the patch tag according to the answers (hoping keep BTS control echo low).
