[Bug 934433] Re: elfutils needs Multi-Arch support

[Evan Broder]

Riku - Thanks for the patch. However, we were past FeatureFreeze when
you filed this bug, and the current stance of the release team is that
multiarchification requires a FFe
(http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess). Could you fill one out?

Also, the patch that you uploaded to this bug appears to be slightly
different from what the Debian maintainer actually uploaded. Can you
update your patch to match what Debian did so that we can keep the diff
minimal going forward? (I realize this will just be a sync for Q, but it
would be good to make sure we're consistent)

I'm going to go ahead and unsubscribe ubuntu-sponsors for the time
being, but feel free to resubscribe them if you feel you've addressed
those concerns.

Title:
  elfutils needs Multi-Arch support

Status in “elfutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “elfutils” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The current elfutils (0.152-1ubuntu2) in precise does not have Multi-
  Arch support, so if the 32-bit lib is needed on a 64-bit system, it
  cannot be installed via libelf1:i386.

  There's a current bug report open with debian (debian bug #657139)
  with a patch that seems close but needs some tweaking.

  This is necessary for some older 32-bit apps we'll need to run once
  precise is out that depend on the 32-bit version of libelf.so.1.

  Thanks and please let me know if I can provide any other info.
