Note that Breaks suffers from the same problem. I should also say that those should also be fixed IMO: I: dpkg source: non-standard-arch-in-source-relation kfreebsd-i386 [build-depends: libselinux1-dev (>= 1.28-4) [!hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64]] I: dpkg source: non-standard-arch-in-source-relation kfreebsd-amd64 [build-depends: libselinux1-dev (>= 1.28-4) [!hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64]] kfreebsd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64, armel are unofficial architectures which are mentioned in many cases.
