SubjectBug#1144100: linux-libc-dev-cross-arch are using the multiarch path, not the HOST_GNU_TYPE path
Message-ID<NqOtb-aeMS-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
Package: src:linux
Version: 7.1.7-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid forky
Affects: src:cross-toolchain-base

The linux-libc-dev-cross-<arch> packages are using the multiarch path, 
not the HOST_GNU_TYPE path.

That doesn't make a difference on most architectures, but does for i386.

Yes, they use multiarch, as expected.  HOST_GNU_TYPE is not stable over
the lifetime of the distribution.

And also it now took me quite some time to decipher what you mean,
because you refuse to show what you see.

The missing information:

The affected package is linux-libc-dev-i386-cross.  The package name was
listed wrong as linux-libc-dev-cross-<arch>, which does not exist, even
after replacing the placeholder.

The contents are installed into /usr/i386-linux-gnu (derived from
multiarch).  However it is expected to be installed into
/usr/i686-linux-gnu (derived from the gnu type).

For the future:

Please use reportbug, it will catch some problems.  And please fill bugs
against the binary package that actually shows the broken behaviour, not
the source package, unless reportbugs overrides you (and for
linux-libc-dev-* it will not).

Well, Jim, I'm not much of an actor either.
