Package: dpkg Version: 1.17.11 Severity: wishlist (X-d-cc debian-release@)
Hi, Currently M-A:same packages with different versions can't be co-installed. That prevents packages that have been binNMUed in one architecture but not another to be co-installed, e.g. libfoo_1.1-1:i386 libfoo_1.1-1+b1:amd64 or libfoo_1.1-1+b1:i386 libfoo_1.1-1+b2:amd64 Can't be co-installed. This is problematic because packages get binNMU on a subset of architectures very often (whenever it's not needed to binNMU them everywhere). See e.g. #758527.
