Bug#742756: multi-arch and system-dependent header files
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.9.5
<https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation> says:
<< If your -dev package contains headers which vary across architectures then it
cannot be marked as Multi-Arch: same until a policy decision is made about
architecture-dependant headers and the toolchain is updated. >>
As far as I understand, the current practice for handling them is to move
them to /usr/include/<triplet>/ and the C preprocessor will look at this
directory.
Probably policy should say something about that.
