(In this example,
libc6 is a "multi-arch: allowed" package,
- which means that it exists in several different builds
- for different architectures.

=head2 Finding the Debian release (the "suite")
You'll need a chroot for each of the secondary architectures.
This is somewhat tiresome,
even though Debian has excellent tools for managing chroots.
-C<sbuild-createchroot> from the sbuild package is a
-good starting point.
+C<sbuild-debian-developer-setup> from the package of the same name
+and C<sbuild-createchroot> from the C<sbuild> package are
+good starting points.
Otherwise you could deinstall the packages of interest
for those other architectures
your desperate last resort is to try
using the same version number
as the official package for your own package.

This is not ideal because it makes it hard to tell what is installed,
and because it will mislead and confuse apt.
