Package: alien Version: 8.85 Severity: wishlist Hi!
I don't know how correct it's, but is it possible to make alien generate a package when the current arch is different from the converted package? (for example, i386 packages on amd64 or even a --force switch) Like here, on this amd64 system and trying to create a deb file from a i686.rpm I get: package.i686.rpm is for architecture i386 ; the package cannot be built on this system I know that I can convert it inside a chroot (or convert rpm -> tgz -> deb), but could this be implemented in alien, if possible, please? Thank you very much!
