Package: checkinstall Version: 1.5.3-3 Severity: normal Hi Matt,
checkinstall should be setting the Architecture: field on Debian packages created on AMD Athlon 64 systems to amd64 instead of x86_64 as mandated by https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/21/debian-amd64-howto.html#id220790 Otherwise dpkg refuses to install any packages checkinstall creates. Cheers, Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-9-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages checkinstall depends on: ii file 4.12-1 Determines file type using "magic" ii installwatch 0.6.3-1 Track installation of local softwa -- no debconf information -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau <http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~alau/> Debian GNU/Linux Maintainer & Computer Science, UNSW - "Nobody expects the Debian Inquisition!
