Bug#792223: mesa-utils: looking for a way to have glxinfo (end friends) installed for both amd64 and i386 at the same time
Package: mesa-utils
Version: 8.2.0-1
Severity: wishlist
For debugging 32-bit GL issues on a amd64 host it may be useful to have
access to glxinfo for amd64 and for i386 at the same time.
One possible solution could be to ship the binaries renamed to
${glxbinary}-${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH} (or
${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}-${glxbinary} as the GCC toolchain does),
maybe in a new binary package 'mesa-utils-bin' that is Multi-Arch:same,
and have mesa-utils ship ${glxbinary} ->
${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}-${glxbinary} symlinks while depending on
mesa-utils-bin:native.
