18 I think this means "make 32-bit binary packages' dependencies on amd64
19 not use the emul- packages"? If so, that'd certainly be a component of
20 getting rid of emul-linux-x86-xlibs. It's not in the scope of my
21 project to get rid of /all/ of the emul- packages, but I agree that
22 that is a worthwhile goal.
