ia32-apt-get fails to generate package for 32bit libopenal-dev |
Package: ia32-apt-get
Version: 22
This problem might be in ia32-libs-tools, but I think what's happening
is that ia32-apt-get is not handling packages that have arch=all. One
case is libopenal-dev, which I've been trying to install with
ia32-apt-get as lib32openal-dev or ia32-libopenal-dev, neither of
which work.
Although similar to bug #539277 (which I also reported), this cannot
be solved by adding an entry to /etc/ia32-libs-tools/rename.list.

Arch:all packages are specifically handled. They are not renamed and
they are not changed in any way. They are architecture independend
after all.
What you are seeing here is that -dev packages aren't architecture
independend in a multiarch context. Both /usr/lib/pkgconfig/openal.pc
(potentially) and the /usr/lib/libopenal.so -> libopenal.so.1 symlink
are architecture specific in multiarch. ia32-apt-get tries to simulate
that environment but can not magically fix packages.
Overall I have to say that -dev packages are out of scope for
ia32-apt-get. If you want to compile 32bit packages then please do use
a 32bit chroot. You can then install and run the resulting deb
packages in your normal system if you like.
