Package: libc6-i386
Version: 2.3.6-15
Severity: normal

Hi,

I believe you've made a typo in the short and long description of this 
package. It's the same text as for libc6-amd64. It should probably read 
that this package is targetted at the i386 platform (not amd64).

Regards,
Tobias

Hi,

you're right, I missed that the package builds only for amd64. I've been 
distracted by the package's name (libc6-i386) and thought it's meant for 
i386. Sorry for the noise, I'm closing the bug with this message.

Regards,
Tobias
