Dear bash maintainer,

the Makefiles and the pkgconfig file shipped in bash-builtins use
`/usr/lib` instead of `/usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}`.

Lintian warns about pkg-config-unavailable-for-cross-compilation:
Would it be possible to make the bash-builtins package multiarch-compatible?

Regards,

Maybe /usr/lib/pkgconfig/bash.pc could be dropped altogether, given that

1) it does not seem to be used by any other package,
2) it is not present in many other distros and
3) is also slightly broken.

Regards,
