Hello!

Thank yoU for Pointing to the "multiarch" package, but it failed to install on my Debian 5.0.10:

# dpkg -i multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb
(Reading database ... 11680 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking multiarch-support (from multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb) ...
dpkg-deb: file `multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb' contains ununderstood data member data.tar.xz     , giving up
dpkg: error processing multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb (--install):
 subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb

It looks like this is the "new-style"(packed without backward compatibility) package that won`t install on old Debian 5.0.10 :( . Is there a way to re-pack this package on old Debian?  Or, maybe, there ia a way t o "extract-copy-register" its contents manually?


Best regards,
Maed.

It will be in the unreleased distribution.  I had to apply patches to the
official source to get it to build and uploaded that to the unreleased
distribution, then the maintainers of eglibc (the source package)
uploaded (with my fixes) a completely new version of eglibc that had new
build failures that I am still trying to fix...

http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian/pool-alpha/main/e/eglibc/multiarch-support_2.17-97+alpha_alpha.deb

Cheers
Michael
