We do and have it. Can you give me one or two examples what's missing?
When I was doing the ftp install, there were plenty(e.g. mesa, mesaglut, openmotif - I think those were the ones that came with it, and it seems to be the same with every other minor library), then I updated some packages with apt, and noticed the same trend there...Is it just someone really lazy or me having something wrong with my config?? I think I've noticed a couple of packages like that from the apt repositories for i386, but all of the original SuSE's rpms seem to be alright for i386...
So, you only see this with apt? That would mean there's a bug in apt...
No, no, no - that's what I'm trying to tell, not very effectively, apparently :) There's nothing wrong with standard SuSE's i386 packages. But on x86_64 this occurred with YaST, _before_ I tried apt. I've just checked with rpm -q --info - there's nothing in the description field of the packages mentioned above.
