Bug#637232: BTS #637232: Multiarch breaks support for non-multiarch toolchain

[Osamu Aoki <osamu@debian.org>]

Hi,

My condolences for "too many non-bug bug-reports" :-)

I have no objection to have some mention for the multiarch in
release-notes.

But relaistically, users who do not read NEWS.Debian (very long) will
likely not to read long release-notes :-(  So documenting here will have
minimal impact for the number of bug reports.

I suggest you to add /usr/share/bug/<packagename>/presubj files to each
binary package such as libc6, libc6-dev, ... to prevent further report
coming to you libc maintainers.  (If it is still possible under freeze.)

presubj file can be(Without leading "|  "):

|  If you are using a non-Debian toolchain to build your software and 
|  it is not able to cope with the multiarch file path for libc, it is
|  not a libc *bug*.
|
|  You might work around by passing -B/usr/lib/$arch to your compiler.

or any other short contents to guide bug reporters.  (possibly to the
release notes describing work arounds)

Regards,

Osamu
