[PATCH v3 1/1] builddeb: generate multi-arch friendly linux-libc-dev package

From: Cedric Hombourger
Date: Thu Jul 04 2019 - 16:51:04 EST


Debian-based distributions place libc header files in a machine
specific directory (/usr/include/<libc-machine>) instead of
/usr/include/asm to support installation of the linux-libc-dev
package from multiple architectures. Move headers installed by
"make headers_install" accordingly using Debian's tuple from
dpkg-architecture.
