Hello!

Just as a heads-up: This problem isn't limited to x32, it also breaks on alpha
and I'm currently flooded with sbuild build failure mails as setting up the
build environment fails [1]:

Setting up libc6.1:alpha (2.29-6) ...
/usr/bin/perl: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package libc6.1:alpha (--configure):
 installed libc6.1:alpha package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6.1:alpha
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
apt-get failed.

Maybe the Pre-Depends to libgcrypt1 was added for the libc6 package only but
not the libc6.1 package?
