Title:
  libxml2-dev: /usr/bin/xml2-config isn't identical across all arch

Status in “libxml2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In the M-A implementation of version 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu1,
  /usr/bin/xml2-config still contains M-A tripples, which is troublesome
  when the package libxml2-dev is marked as M-A: same. The problem is
  caused by the sed call in debian/rules says "usr/lib/<tripple>", while
  it wasn't like that in xml2-config script itself.

  Change required is trivial, in debian/rules:

  -	sed -i -e 's,/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH),/usr/lib,' debian/libxml2-dev/usr/bin/xml2-config
  +	sed -i -e 's,/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH),/lib,' debian/libxml2-dev/usr/bin/xml2-config
