[Bug 859600] Re: Please convert gnome-keyring to multiarch

[eraserix]

I've updated the description with more specific instructions on how to
test this SRU.

As for Depends vs Recommends from debian policy manual:
The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of functionality.

The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together
with this one in all but unusual installations.

I'm kind of inclined to stay with recommends. I can still store
passwords in the keyring without the pkcs11 library, no?

@graham: Thanks for the info about how the new multiarched package finds
its way to the users.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Several applications are relying on this package as seen in comments 5 and 6.

  [Test case]
  Attempt to install both i386/amd64 versions of libp11-kit-gnome-keyring and preferably verify if the reported applications in this bug are able to run successfully.

  1. Run the command 'wine notepad'. Notice the warning from p11-kit.
  2. sudo apt-get install libp11-kit-gnome-keyring:i386
  3. Run the command 'wine notepad' again. Notice that the warning is gone.

  [Regression Potential]
  Minimal, several rdepends build testing have been completed successfully and nothing in the keyring code is attempting to dlopen any hardcoded library paths.

  gnome-keyring is still installing libraries to /usr/lib instead of the
  multarch compatible /usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) directory. The
  attached patch does the conversion.
