Here are the notes taken in gobby during the meeting:

Participants
============

fsfs, ntyni, carnil (said 'hello'), gregoa

Work done
=========

Discussion about #826790 and Multi-Arch: foreign
------------------------------------------------

https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation#Multi-Arch:_foreign_support_packages
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec#Dependencies_involving_Architecture:_all_packages

Conclusion:

We can optionally/on request add "Multi-Arch: foreign" to arch:all packages
- if they are leaf packages, i.e. depend on only perl
- if they depend only on perl and other arch:all packages;
  but this is fragile because the dependencies can change from arch:all 
  to arch:any "behind our back" and there's currently no QA tool warning us
  in place


Discussion of #841076 ("running enc2xs -C on (de-)installation of
Encode::* packages")
-----------------------------------------------------------------

- implementing a trigger in the perl package as suggested by ntyni
  seems right
- we might want to ask upstream about the status of enc2xs -C as it's
  somewhat under-documented and under-used


Packages / bugs
