I'm trying to do a multistrap config that pulls in some -dev packages, but
I'm having problems with the dependency resolution. I imagine the -dev
packages aren't in the Grip repository, and so are being picked up from the
standard Debian repository, but the dependency checking is choking on the
em1 suffix on the Grip package. I have tried explicitly specifying a
problem package in the packages= line for the Debian stanza, but this
doesn't seem to help. Also, some of the dependencies for the -dev packages
don't seem to be automatically resolved if they depend on other -dev
packages. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks,

Here are more details:
For example, I'm trying to pull in libc6-dev, which depends on libc6. I get
the following error
