Bug#756032: libdnet: should be multiarch because apparently roaraudio wants it for some unfathomable reason
Package: libdnet
Version: 2.63
Severity: wishlist
libmuroar0, libmuroard3 and libroar2 depend on libdnet. They cannot be
installed for both :amd64 and :i386 (or whatever) unless libdnet is.
I have no idea why something that appears to be a sound server analogous
to PulseAudio/ESD would depend on what appears to be a library to
communicate with Ultrix and VMS machines over an obsolete non-IP protocol,
but perhaps I'm not understanding the problem space.
In any case, in the unlikely event that someone still cares about DECnet,
they should probably fix this or something.
The dependency chain of interest at the moment is
wine:i386 -> libopenal1 -> libroar-compat2 -> libroar2 -> libdnet
other stuff:amd64 -> libopenal1 -> libroar-compat2 -> libroar2 -> libdnet
in which the non-multiarch nature of libroar-compat and libroar2 (#755846)
and libdnet (this bug) is preventing wine from being installed on
fairly typical systems.
