Package: libc6-dev Version: 2.13-38 Severity: important Hello,
I tried building a C program with libc-dev installed. The program would not build because headers were missing: libc6-dev-i386: /usr/include/bits libc6-dev:amd64: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/predefs.h linux-libc-dev:amd64: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/asm/errno.h gcc-multilib: /usr/include/asm For the asm/errno.h (referenced from common header) to be present gcc-multilib must be installed. Similarily for bits/predefs.h to be present libc6-dev-i386 must be installed. The libc6-dev package is incomplete and cannot stand on its own. Dependency on gcc-multilib is bogus. It requires specific version of gcc installed. Also, libc6-dev does not depend on these packages. Please make a libc package against which C programs do compile.
