Package: dlib Version: 18.18-2 Severity: wishlist Hi,
Currently libdlib{18, -dev} has no multiarch support and installs all
files under /usr/lib.
Multiarch support should be pretty straightforward to implement:
1) Add Multi-Arch: same to the binary package sections in d/control.
This is fine because header files included by the -dev package
are not architecture dependent.
2) Update debian/*.install files: /usr/lib/... -> /usr/lib/*/...
For example, files may be installed under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
and the packaging system should cope with that.
You can find more information about it here[0].
I'm currently working on the next Debian release of dlib and intend to
fix this issue, see #894118[1].
Regards,
Hugo
