Package: lintian Version: 2.5.0 Severity: normal I have converted ftplib to multi-arch and noticed two small problems with lintian:
1/ W: ftplib3: postinst-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig This one (already pointed out to nthykier on IRC) is that data/shared-libs/ldconfig-dirs needs to be updated to include lib/i386-linux-gnu and usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu since those are the official path for multiarch on i386. But changing the file has a strange side-effect where it leads to a test failure: Running binaries-multiarch 1.0... building... testing...

It doesn't include the multiarch paths as a valid path where public libraries can be installed.
