Hello,

I'm glad to heard the progress on multi-arch. I try to read some
resources on multi-arch. Unfortunately I failed to understand one basic
thing. What is the definition of a co-installable package? My
understanding is that you can install multiple arch package without
overwriting file, is it correct? In this case, who is in charge to move
.so file to an unique directory name (ie not everyone in /usr/lib).

Let's take the example of soundtouch which contains so libraries and
doc. What is the expected multi-arch value ?
"same" (co-installable except the issue with the doc)? 

Thanks.

Best regards,
Gregory
