Dear Maintainer,

I would like to install libapr1-dev and libapr1-dev:armhf side by side,
since this package is a dependency of liblog4cxx-dev.

However, I get the message:
 libapr1-dev : Conflicts: libapr1-dev:armhf but 1.7.0-6+deb11u1 is to be installed
 libapr1-dev:armhf : Conflicts: libapr1-dev but 1.7.0-6+deb11u1 is to be installed

While I was not expecting any conflicts.

From a cursory glance, it appears that, in addition to the headers
(which should be similar between architectures, although I haven't
checked), there are is also a apr-1-config binary, which is different
between versions.
Maybe the configuration can be moved to the /usr/lib/*/, leaving
apr-1-config as a shell script which is equal between versions?
I think there are no conflicts if the files are equal between different
architectures.
(A similar problem also happens in libaprutil1-dev, I don't know if I
should report this bug also there or not)

BR, João Rodrigues

Hi,

sorry for the late response.

At the very least, /usr/include/apr-1.0/apr.h is arch dependent and
would have to be moved.

/usr/share/apr-1.0/build/apr_rules.mk is also generated during build and
could therefore also differ between architectures. I think it would take
some effort to figure out if this can be safely shared or how one could
make sure that the correct version is used.

Cheers,
