Forgive my ignorance: could you explain the rationale for the choice that was made for the meaning of "dpkg-query -L <package>" when <package> is multiarch:same? If the explanation is convincing, I'd be happy to rework it into a patch for the dpkg-query manpage so there is something to point people to when they ask again. I ask because Bill's request makes a lot of sense in light of the explanation Russ gave on debian-devel of multiarch, where there is one package being installed and the list of architectures is just a detail of how it is installed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
