Hi Thorsten,
In Ubuntu I've noticed that libsbig is not releasable because the package
autobuilds a -dev package on all archs, but it is uninstallable on most
archs because the runtime library package is only available on amd64, armhf,
and arm64.
This also prevents the package from being released to Debian testing.
I'm assuming that the -dev package is meant to only be provided on the archs
where the runtime library package is provided, rather than it serving some
other limited function on these other architectures; so I have uploaded the
attached patch to Ubuntu to get the two binary packages in sync.
Thanks for considering,
