The linux-libc-dev-cross-<arch> packages are using the multiarch path,
not the HOST_GNU_TYPE path.

That doesn't make a difference on most architectures, but does for i386.

Yes, they use multiarch, as expected.  HOST_GNU_TYPE is not stable over
the lifetime of the distribution.

And also it now took me quite some time to decipher what you mean,
because you refuse to show what you see.

Bastian

this is not the decision of the Debian CTTE. Please read the resolution
in #1065416.

I am sorry that I was unclear.

But instead of assuming bad faith, you should simply ask for
clarification.  I'm CCing the community team, just in case I'm wrong
about my expectations on your communication style.

Matthias

Control: reassign -1 linux-libc-dev-i386-cross
Control: found -1 6.18~rc4-1~exp1

The missing information:

The affected package is linux-libc-dev-i386-cross.  The package name was
listed wrong as linux-libc-dev-cross-<arch>, which does not exist, even
after replacing the placeholder.

The contents are installed into /usr/i386-linux-gnu (derived from
multiarch).  However it is expected to be installed into
/usr/i686-linux-gnu (derived from the gnu type).

For the future:

Please use reportbug, it will catch some problems.  And please fill bugs
against the binary package that actually shows the broken behaviour, not
the source package, unless reportbugs overrides you (and for
linux-libc-dev-* it will not).

Bastian
