ISTR it's hard to find authoritative descriptions for the sections.
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/ says:

    devel:    Development utilities, compilers, development
              environments, libraries, etc.

    libdevel: Libraries necessary for developers to write programs that
              use them.

I suspect that the "libraries" in the devel section description is from
before the libdevel section was created. I think that libdevel is what
we want, anyway.

Just to be explicit about what's happening.

Because of problems (or potential problems) with splitting on other
arches.


Thanks
