Popularity Contest is used to collect information on packages installed by users. However, there is currently a need to determine whether a particular architecture should be supported, but popularity-contest does not collect the information. See [1] and [2]. I think it would be useful to have popularity-contest collect information on the underlying hardware to guide arch decisions. [1] "Removing dpkg arch definitions for powerpcspe?"
