Hi Ondřej,
Although the libdb-dev package doesn't contain any architecture-dependent
data, it does represent an architecture-specific interface; packages which
build-depend on it, for instance, need to wind up with the .a file for the
corresponding architecture. As multiarch increasingly enables
cross-compilation of packages, it's important that packages be able to
express a build-dependency on the -dev package for a particular
architecture. This means that libdb-dev (et al.) should be Architecture:
any, and Multi-Arch: same.
The attached trivial patch which implements this has been uploaded to
Ubuntu.
Thanks,
