Bug#366744: GNAT is not mentioned in its copyright file
Please replace the previous patch with this patch against 4.1.0-4.
More explanation may be needed for Pascal.
[Ludovic Brenta]
* debian/copyright: Mention Ada packages (Closes: #366744).
Reorganise the explanation on the various packages. Explain
biarch. List all binary packages built from the sources. Remove
duplicate licensing terms for libmudflap.

+Debian provides additional packages containing 32-bit versions of some
+libraries. These packages have names beginning with 'lib32' instead of
+'lib', for example lib32stdc++6. Similarly, on some 32-bit platforms which

+beginning with 'lib64' instead of 'lib'. These packages contain 64-bit
+versions of the libraries. (At this time, not all platforms and not all
