Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.16.1.1
Severity: normal
I tried to build ncurses 5.9-2 in a squeeze chroot with only the
necessary build dependencies (debhelper, dpkg-dev and libdpkg-perl)
upgraded to the wheezy version. The result was not quite satisfactory,
because dpkg-shlibdeps did not find libtinfo.so.5:

`----
The reason seems to be that {/usr,}/lib/i386-linux-gnu is not in the
dynamic linker's search path in squeeze. Perhaps dpkg-dev should depend
on multiarch-support, which pulls in a libc6 version with the right
contents of /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i486-linux-gnu.conf ?
