Bug#325463: glibc: [Patch] Allow for multiarch libraries
Package: glibc
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
atached is a patch that will add /lib/arch-os-gnu and
/usr/lib/arch-os-gnu to the default-rpath. Those two directories are
the placement for libraries in the future multiarch support [...-gnu
now since gcc -dumpmachine has it and to allow for e.g. uclibc linked
libraries].
The patch is part of work done by Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen@debian.org>
to multiarch-ify glibc and reduced to just the parts needed to make
glibc see other, already multiarch-ified libraries. Adding this would
greatly help transitioning to multiarch as it prevents a big testing
blockage (libraries don't have to wait for glibc to become multiarch
but can transition on their own).
