Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.85.13
Severity: minor

Hi!

When you install apt-listchanges it currently depends on dpkg-dev which in
turn Recommends: gcc | c-compiler, build-essential, ...

It seems that apt-listchanges is calling dpkg-architecture (it didn't do
that on previous versions) and that dpkg-architecture is sending out a
message which if seen on an unattended-upgrade run looks like you have an
error on your apt setup or on your system. This is what my
unattended-upgrade mail looked like:

Leyendo lista de cambios...
sh: 1: gcc: not found
dpkg-architecture: aviso: couldn't determine gcc system type, falling back
to default (native compilation)
apt-listchanges: Enviando por correo root: apt-listchanges: lista de cambios
para ara2
Preconfiguring packages ...


calling dpkg-architecture with 2>/dev/null would solve this cosmetic
problem, but I'm not sure that's the best solution for this problem.

Hope this bugreport helps us avoid warnings from users or later bugreports
about false broken systems, ...

I'm omiting the packages info as I'm running bugreport on a machine that is
not affected (running stable) while the affected machine is running testing
and it is an amd64 based machine which doesn't have any development
environment (only dpkg-dev pulled by apt-listchanges). If you need any info
to replicate the problem don't hesitate to ask.

Regards.
