Hi,

to support foreign architecture DPKG_ROOT, I recently filed #1007754
against src:libgcrypt20. This bug does *not* implement DPKG_ROOT support
for src:glib2.0 (and there is currently no reason for src:glib2.0 to
support DPKG_ROOT at all) but I thought it prudent to submit the same
patch to glib2.0 as I did to src:libgcrypt20 because both source
packages make use of the same script clean-up-unmanaged-libraries and I
think it makes sense if both packages agree on how the script should be
used in maintainer scripts (also to prevent wrong cargo-culting by other
packages that might copy the method in the future).

I created the following merge request that fixes this issue:

Thanks!

cheers, josch
