Oops I forgot to check architectures other than amd64 (and that such removal do not need to involve FTP Masters). With those reverse dependencies left, multiarch-support could become a leftover cruft on certain architectures if those old packages are not removed; anyway it should be checked later after new glibc upload.

Control: severity -1 normal Control: tag -1 - wontfix X-Debbugs-CC: aurel...@aurel32.net Hi Aurelien and other Debian glibc maintainers, With Debian Buster released, I think now we are absolutely safe to have package multiach-support removed from Sid (and thus Testing). There's no other package in Sid (and Testing) currently depends on it. I can help submit a removal request to FTP Masters if you find it okay.

Bug#910669: glibc: Please remove transitional package multiarch-support
Source: glibc Version: 2.27-6 X-Debbugs-CC: aure...@debian.org d...@debian.org Severity: normal Hi Aurelien, Matthias and Debian glibc maintainers, As previously discussed in https://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2018/08/msg00050.html , I think it's time to completely remove multiarch-support from Sid (and thus Buster). There's already no package in Sid (on amd64 platform) that depends on multiarch-support. There is still one left in experimental (openjdk-7-jre-headless) however it was due to its FTBFS in experimental. Openjdk-7's source package has already removed it. Please see https://bugs.debian.org/906117 for its details. I do hope we could get rid of multiarch-support before Buster freeze. P.S. doko: is it possible that #906117 eventually gets solved? That would undoubtedly be helpful. -- Regards, Boyuan Yang
