Where "that package" is libc6 or the other packages installing direct in
to the *64 directories? I only ask because from a quick test in a
chroot, installing and purging such a package (hardinfo, predictably :-)
didn't appear to cause any issues and I suspect most users don't plan on
removing libc6 any time soon.
