Package: binutils-multiarch
Version: 2.17.20070210cvs-1
Severity: normal

binutils-multiarch usually diverts all binaries from binutils to -single.
On most systems, embedspu is not shipped in binutils I expect so no problem
occurs with it, on powerpc, however, embedspu is shipped in binutils and
need not be in binutils-multiarch. Currently, binutils-multiarch or binutils
fails to install because:

Preparing to replace binutils 2.17.20070103cvs-2 (using
.../binutils_2.17.20070210cvs-1_powerpc.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement binutils ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/binutils_2.17.20070210cvs-1_powerpc.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/embedspu', which is also in package
/binutils-multiarch

IMHO binutils-multiarch shouldn't ship embedspu on powerpc.
