Debian (Unstable) Squeeze / Sid /usr/lib32/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so linked to missing libraries

While playing with my installed programs on my recently updated Debian I stepped into a problem with
/usr/lib32/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so.
It seems the library was linked to two non-existing libraries:
/emul/ia32-linux/lib/libwrap.so.0 as well as /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3.
A temporary solution to the issue is pointed out in Debian of the Debian Bug reports . As the report reads to solve that it's required to:
1. Download libwrap0_7.6.q-18_i386.deb and libgdbm3_1.8.3-6+b1_i386.deb.
2. Extract the packages:
dpkg -X libwrap0_7.6.q-18_i386.deb /emul/ia32-linux/
dpkg -X libgdbm3_1.8.3-6+b1_i386.deb /emul/ia32-linux/
3. echo /emul/ia32-linux/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ia32.conf
4. Execute /sbin/ldconfig
5. Check if all is properly linked
Execute ldd /usr/lib32/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so|grep -i "not found"
Hopefully all should be fixed now.
