Don't see how dpkg has anything to do with it, the problem is with the
software's build process itself; the fink/debian package stuff is just a
recipe to get it into a tarball with metadata.

But, I digress.  :)

I'm sure everyone would be happy to have simple universal binary support
in Fink, and if someone wants to submit patches to dpkg (to have a
"universal" type that installs on i386/ppc systems) and patches to fink
to make it possible to build universal binaries, we'd be happy to accept
it, but I personally don't have the time to work on such a beast, and I
think of anyone who hacks on fink (the program) regularly, I'm most
likely to do such a thing, so unless someone wants to learn fink
internals and hack it up, it's unlikely it will happen.
