• Bug#267297: lib64gcc1 (priority required) depends on an optional packag

    From Uwe Storbeck@1:229/2 to All on Sat Aug 21 22:10:14 2004

    Package: lib64gcc1
    Version: 3.4.1-7
    Severity: normal

    lib64gcc1 (which is of priority required) depends on amd64-libs, which
    is optional. This does not make much sense.

    $ apt-cache show lib64gcc1
    Package: lib64gcc1
    Priority: required
    Section: libs
    Architecture: i386
    Source: gcc-3.4 (3.4.1ds1-7)
    Version: 1:3.4.1-7
    Depends: amd64-libs (>= 0.1)

    $ apt-cache show amd64-libs
    Package: amd64-libs
    Priority: optional
    Section: libs
    Architecture: i386
    Version: 1.0

    lib64gcc1 should not be of priority required on the i386 architecture
    which itself is a 32-bit architecture. Most of the installations which
    do not run on an AMD64 cpu probably never will need it.
