Thank you! You one of the few that remembered about coredumps ;-)

Thank you. Good work, and -- BTW -- I agree it is potentially confusing.

Is this still a problem? Just curious, though. Also the issue is
getting confused and confusing... But good work.

Extra points for upstreaming it :-)

good work.

Good work.

Good work, and medium is indeed correct: right now pretty much only
developers are using multiarch support. Also *very* good that you
maintained your cool even after a somewhat harsh rebuttal from
vorlon. Extra points for that: maintaining etiquette is a critical
part of our work.

So, +1.

Given that you already have another +1 from Philip, I am going ahead
and accepting your application.

Thank you for helping on triage, and Welcome To The Team!

Cheers,
