Bug#852549: do not list /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gio/modules

[cgzones]

On a minimal non graphical system without any gio modules installed, e.g.
the packages glib-networking or dconf-gsettings-backend, the directory
 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gio/modules does not exist.
Due to the entry in debian/libglib2.0-0.dirs, the path is contained on the
system at /var/lib/dpkg/info/libglib2.0-0:amd.list .
Cruft then complains about the nonexistence of the path.

Maybe the directory could be shipped empty?

Can you elaborate what is supposed to be the bug here?
