Public bug reported: [Impact] Marking xterm "Multi-arch: foreign" will allow 32-bit packages to depend on xterm and install successfully on 64-bit releases of Ubuntu from 11.04 onward.
Some 3rd party apps, such as Lotus Sametime, use xterm to display messages. [Test Case] Build and install i386 packages on amd64 and attempt to depend on xterm. [Regression Potential] Minimal as this packaging change only means that pulling in the 64-bit xterm can satisfy the dependency of a 32-bit application. Can we make this change for precise? ** Affects: xterm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: precise quantal ** Tags added: precise quantal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xterm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1054344 Title: Please mark xterm as "Multi-arch: foreign" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xterm/+bug/1054344/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
