You know, you could just download the package and look at the changelog contained within.

Hi folks, AFAICS ia32-libs shrunk for about 725KByte between 1.8 and 1.9. But using aptitude I can review the changelog. It is not available. What has been dropped? Would it be possible to provide the changelog by default, esp. for such a radical change? Many thanx Harri signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Specifically, qemu (for example) depends on ia32-libc6, which depends on lib32gcc1. That library in turn depends on libc6-i386. Oops looks like this is caused by my old amd64-archive installation.
