The encoding of symbols has nothing to do with the header files, I also can't
see any generated header files which differ on different architectures.  If the
latter should be the cause, these surely can be moved into the multiarch include
directory.

I have simply re-introduced the accidentally dropped multi-arch support 
which Doko has introduced in the first place.


Doko, did you check whether the headers vary between architectures?

Thanks for the suggested patch.

I am worried, however, about the following phrase at 
https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation:

Did you test that the multi-arch packages work in a multi-arch 
environment?  Looking at the symbols file, it seems headers do vary.

When re-applying the multi-arch support I based myself on the original 
implementation in Ubuntu:

I have now re-applied multi-arch to Ubuntu's Ghostscript package which 
is nearly identical to Debian's current Ghostscript package. So I attach 
the debdiff and hope with this you will easily able to add multi-arch 
functionality to Debian's Ghostscript package.


I am very grateful if you apply this so that I can keep the delta 
between Debian's and Ubuntu's Ghostscript packages low.

Bug#770266: libgs9: please convert to multiarch

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libgs9
Version: 9.06~dfsg-1.1
Severity: wishlist
User: multiarch-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: multiarch

Hi,

please convert your package to multiarch. It is part of the dependency
chain of other packages that were already converted, but these cannot
currently be installed in a multiarch setting until all dependencies
are converted, too.

For detailed instructions see
https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation


Cheers,

Andreas
