I was out of my mind. > And the .dsc still said 'Architecture: any'. How do I set this field > properly? dpkg-source generates this field based on the Architecture: fields of the binary packages. If all of the packages list Architecture: i386 powerpc, that will be the field in the .dsc. If you have any arch: all packages, though, I believe it ends up being arch: any. I assume that the build daemons handle that situation correctly, though. -- - mdz
