w64codecs doesn't actually contain any codecs

Asked by mlx

Am I missing something here? The w64codecs package doesn't actually contain any codecs at all, there are no .dll files and the package is <1MiB in size AFTER axtraction, compared to ~20MiB of compressed w32codecs package. Are those codecs only supported under i386 arch?
$ dpkg -L w64codecs
