The package builds for me on amd64, i386, armhf (pbuilder chroots, armhf via qemu). The existing amd64 binary works, i.e. I was able to query and change the mcekill setting. (More settings are not supported, maybe architecture/kernel/cpu dependent). So maybe the packages-arch-specific setting is wrong. Andreas
