Bug#712116: DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs should receive multiarch-qualified package names
Package: apt
Version: 0.9.7.7
The current input format for DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs hooks makes it
impossible to tell which architecture of a multiarch package is being
removed. For example, removing libbz2-1.0:amd64 and libbz2-1.0:i386
results in this input:
libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-4 > - **REMOVE**
libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-4 > - **REMOVE**
Can we change the format to arch-qualify the package names as
${binary:Package} does?
Thanks,
Anders
