Bug#689122: libcairo2-dev is not Multi-Arch compatible

[Francois Gouget]

Package: libcairo2-dev
Version: 1.14.0-2.1
Followup-For: Bug #689122

Dear Maintainer,

I have tested this and I have not seen any issue preventing libcairo2-dev from being marked Multi-Arch: same. Is there an issue I am not aware of?

Furthermore I don't see any reason not to make cairo-perf-utils Multi-Arch: foreign. This way any package that wants to use these tools will be able to, while packages that need access to the libcairo-trace.so library will have to wait until a decision is made (make the package Multi-Arch: allowed, or move the library in a separate package).

Personally I would however reorder a couple more lines as I think it makes sense to have the Architecture and Multi-Arch lines together, and have the Pre-Depends line right before the Depends one.

So here is my proposed patch:
