"foreign" is correct for any package that provides only an exec() interface to its reverse-dependencies; however in general I've only been pushing such a change for packages that have actual multi-arch: same reverse-dependencies (i.e., libraries as revdeps), since otherwise it just makes the packages file bigger for no discernable benefit. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
