I was expecting that we'd need to put anything that you might want to have simultaneous installs from multiple architectures in that directory, which would include, for instance, any shared library plugins or loadable modules, which aren't strictly libraries. We might have to duplicate some library helper programs as well, if for instance they communicate with the library using binary structures that are sensitive to sizeof(long). -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
