Package: fakeroot
Version: 1.5.5
Severity: normal

Out of the 905 packages on my pure 64-bit amd64 debian sid machine,
only this one and the recent libg2c0-dev put any files in
/emul/ia32-linux/ .  For general cleanliness and possible improved
security, I don't want any 32-bit compatibility libraries on this
machine.  Hence the "pure" in my machine description.

I'm not opposed to having 32-bit libraries built for 64-bit machines,
but they should be somehow separated and optional (even "suggested"),
since many people _do_ want to run 32-bit code on their 64-bit
processors.  I happen to not be one one of them.
