Title:
  Needs multiarch metadata to satisfy build-deps correctly

Status in “noweb” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “noweb” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  As part of making Ubuntu 'bootstrappable' we are making sure that at
  least the core system is cross-buildable.

  For build-dependencies to work properly under multiarch this package
  needs to be marked

  Multi-Arch: foreign

  so that it can satisfy a build-dependency for any architecture. See
  http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/CrossDependencies and
  http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation for explanation and
  background.

  There are 4 packages which build-depend on this package, most notably
  ifupdown. None of them will be multiarch cross-buildable without this
  fix.
