Package: aboot
Version: 1.0~pre20040408-4

Dear maintainer:

A simple "dpkg-buildpackage" does not generate "aboot-base.deb"
(on my computer, which is amd64). Apparently this package, even if
it's Arch: all, may only be generated on the alpha architecture.

If this is the case, the packaging should be a little bit more
explicit about this little detail. For example:

* We could have a debian/README.source explaining this.

* We could have debian/rules to fail with an error message
if we try to generate aboot-base on an architecture on which
it may not be generated.

Does this make sense?
