Yeah, I thought that this was your intention, thanks. I was mostly thinking aloud about leaving it open, because this is not an isolated decision, and one faces the same dilemas with many old bugs that are triaged -- because of the "just in case...". > I have the feeling that apt users are trained to use "dpkg -P" for > purging previously removed packages as apt didn't support this for quite > a while (something like squeeze I think, so "new feature" in apt terms > – as the bug is a caused by multiarch the bug should at least exist > since squeeze).
