Package: libreadline6-dev
Version: 6.2-3
Followup-For: Bug #638850

Hi,

on my 64bit system, links from libreadline6-dev are broken since 6.2-3, 
this is what I am experiencing:

$ ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib{history,readline}.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Aug 23 00:28 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhistory.so 
-> /lib/libhistory.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Aug 23 00:28 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so 
-> /lib/libreadline.so.6

but:
$ ls -l /lib/lib{history,readline}.so.6.*
ls: cannot access /lib/libhistory.so.6.*: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access /lib/libreadline.so.6.*: No such file or directory

while the shared objects are under /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:
$ ls -l /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib{history,readline}.so.6.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  34K Aug 23 00:28 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhistory.so.6.2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 276K Aug 23 00:28 
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.6.2


I am also curios about why they are under /lib and not /usr/lib, maybe 
because the system shell depends on libreadline?

Thanks,
