It would be useful for hardening-includes to be Multi-Arch: foreign (I
realise that hardening-wrapper already is), as well as being
Architecture: all. See the spec for why the latter doesn't imply the
former:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec#Dependencies_involving_Architecture:_all_packages
This would assist with cross-building, since a number of packages have
build-dependencies on hardening-includes and currently 'apt-get -aarmel
build-dep openssh' (etc.) gets upset without hardening-includes being
either Architecture: any or Multi-Arch: foreign.
* Make bash-completion Multi-Arch: foreign, so that it can satisfy
cross-build-dependencies.
