# for producing a partially merged-/usr system
Hi Luca,
#926699 is still reproducible in a merged-/usr environment:
(in an amd64 pbuilder chroot)
# ls -lad /lib{,32,64,x32}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Sep 19 00:35 /lib -> usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib32 -> usr/lib32
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib64 -> usr/lib64
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 19 00:35 /libx32 -> usr/libx32
# apt-get install libc6-i386
...
# ls -lad /lib{,32,64,x32}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Sep 19 00:35 /lib -> usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib32 -> usr/lib32
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib64 -> usr/lib64
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 19 00:35 /libx32 -> usr/libx32
# apt-get remove libc6-i386
...
# ls -lad /lib{,32,64,x32}
ls: cannot access '/lib32': No such file or directory
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Sep 19 00:35 /lib -> usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib64 -> usr/lib64
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 19 00:35 /libx32 -> usr/libx32
# apt-get install libc6-i386
...
# ls -lad /lib{,32,64,x32}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Sep 19 00:35 /lib -> usr/lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 440 Sep 19 09:07 /lib32
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Sep 19 00:35 /lib64 -> usr/lib64
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 19 00:35 /libx32 -> usr/libx32
OOPS!
you can probably do the same with libc6-x32 and libc6:amd64 on i386
(didn't mips* have /lib[no]{32,64}?)
