If someone could give me a version number for the removal I can upload a fixed zlib? What's going on here is that now the standard toolchain is capable of cross compiling the biarch packages we no longer need hacks like ia32-libs. Instead the relevant packages should build biarch versions of their libraries, reducing the stress levels of the security team if nothing else. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
