Package: dialog
Version: 1.3-20211214-1
Severity: normal
User: [email protected]
Usertags: multiarch

The dialog package is marked Multi-Arch: foreign, but contains the
static library /usr/lib/<triplet>/libdialog.a.  This is flagged as an
error by lintian.

,----
| $ lintian-explain-tags multiarch-foreign-static-library
| N:
| E: multiarch-foreign-static-library
| N:
| N:   The package is architecture-dependent, ships a static library in a 
public, architecture-dependent library search path
| N:   and is marked Multi-Arch: foreign. A compiler will be unable to find 
this file, unless it is installed for a matching
| N:   architecture, but the foreign marking says that the architecture should 
not matter.
| N:
| N:   Please remove the Multi-Arch: foreign stanza.
`----

The lintian diagnosis looks correct to me, but I do not think the
suggested remedy is what we want here.  Rather, the correct fix should
be to split out libdialog.a and the header files into a separate
libdialog-dev package (which probably could be marked Multi-Arch: same).
