Package: libjte-dev Version: 1.22-3 Severity: important Tags: patch jigit ships an empty directory /usr/lib/pkgconfig. Since other packages ship files in /lib/pkgconfig and we implemented /usr-merge via aliasing, this directory is prone to loss and may unexpectedly disappear from the filesystem.
As it happens, the directory also is not needed. The package got multiarchified and now installs its .pc file into /usr/lib/<triplet>/pkgconfig. The empty directory is an omission during the conversion and can safely be deleted. Once deleted, it can no longer be lost due to /usr-merge. Helmut
