I'm re-opening it, as neither the bug has not been fixed, nor the Policy has been changed to explicitly disallow linking arch:any to arch:all (see #767839). > > ~Niels > > [1] This is not limited to debhelper. The reading of the policy > actually (implicitly) forbids link-doc between arch:all and arch:any > packages as the binNMU version is not the same as the source version. The version of source package is actually the same for both binNMU-ed arch:any and originally built arch:all. I think this fulfils the `(same source package and version)' given in footnote 116 in the policy. Additionally in my opinion those dummy `rebuild with ....' changelog entries are added only to bump the version of binary package in order to upload into archive, otherwise they are probably of little interest to users, especially that they are being later overridden by maintainers' uploads.
