[Bug 2117696] Re: libext2fs-dev installation of ARM64 version in parallel to AMD64 not possible
Thanks for the quick response!
We already use chroots for building i386 executables for old system
versions. Sadly, my experience is, that it doesn't easily integrate in
our development setup, but I'll have another look in this case.
In Ubuntu 22.04 building with the "delivered" multiarch packages works
like a charm, thats why I tried going the same way while moving to
24.04. To me it looks like a nice clean way, so why not use it ;-)
>From the package contents I actually thought it would be "only" (<-
please note the the high quotes ;-)) necessary to package the files in a
different way (together with MultiArch=same), but I understand that
other changes would be necessary --> more unwanted effort.
Actually we originally only want to use libarchive-dev which added the
dependencies to libext2fs-dev in the version prepared for 24.04, so I
will try to find out, why they added it.
Thanks for your time!

Title:
libext2fs-dev installation of ARM64 version in parallel to AMD64 not
possible
Status in e2fsprogs package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I need to build software for both AMD and ARM on one system (build-server)
Therefore i want to install the libext2fs-dev:amd64 and libext2fs-dev:arm64 in parallel.
Via apt install this doesn't work - it always wants to uninstall the other package
sudo apt install libext2fs-dev:arm64
...
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libext2fs-dev
I also cannot use e.g. libarchive-dev:arm64, because it depends on
libext2fs-dev
Diff of the data in the two packages (libext2fs-
dev_1.47.0-2.4~exp1ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb vs libext2fs-
dev_1.47.0-2.4~exp1ubuntu4.1_arm64.deb) shows no reason for this:
(headers are the same, binaries are in architecture-specific folders)
