Package: libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx
Version: 470.129.06-1
Severity: normal

Dear maintainer.

The /usr/share/doc/libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx/README.txt.gz file differs between
the i386 and AMD64 versions of this package, making DPKG error out at install:

  Preparing to unpack .../libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx_470.129.06-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx:amd64 (470.129.06-1) over (470.103.01-4) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx_470.129.06-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite shared '/usr/share/doc/libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx/README.txt.gz', which is different from other instances of package libgl1-nvidia-glvnd-glx:amd64
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)

This is because the file in the i386 version of the package is smaller, missing the entire Appendix 6:
