Package: mate-terminal Version: 1.8.1+dfsg1-3 Severity: minor Hi, Please consider adding "Multi-Arch: foreign" to debian/control, as its absence prevents apt to consider mate-terminal a valid dependency for a package built for some other architecture. For example, mate-terminal provides x-terminal-emulator, but on an amd64 machine, steam, which is an i386-only package depending on "xterm | x-terminal-emulator", pulls xterm along with its dependencies, even if mate-terminal is already installed. Regards,
aren't packages not marked as "Multi-Arch: <something>" automatically considered as "Multi-Arch: foreign"??? I normally don't put a Multi-Arch line into debian/control if a package is to be considered as foregin. (This may actually be based on half-knowledge, so you may actually be right and we should change debian/control accordingly).
Otherwise: Maybe this rather is an APT issue?If possible, please point me to the correct section in Debian policy and I will add that in debian/control of mate-terminal.
