Well, not necessarily. Case by case basis. And with multiarch[1][2], Debian
has at least set the basis to have libraries for different architectures
living peacefully side by side.
(my installation has x86_64 and i386 packages and no war :-)
So the packaging part is no problem.
(Sometimes Debian takes a while to solve something. But the solutions
tend to be... beautiful :-)
