Package: libfontconfig1-dev
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

For crosscompilation we want to install both architectures, adm64 and i386 of the -dev package at the same time. This works for other packages (my testcase is libxcb1-dev). For libfontconfig1-dev the architecture variants appear to be exclusive (same problem for libfreetype6-dev, I suspect the same cause).

The diff between the control file of libxcb1-dev and libfontconfig1-dev
resulted in linfontconfig1-dev additionally Provides: libfontconfig-dev, so I
removed that line.
On my system this corrects the behavior, though I'm not sure this is the right fix.
