That is the correct behavior. "Architecture: all" indicates an architecture-independent package. Arch all packages are built on a single arch but can be used on all archs. Generally, you're going to use this for interpreted languages (i.e. python). If your program must be compiled against every available arch, use "Architecture: any" For more info, take a look at this section of Debian Policy: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Architecture -- Andrew Starr-Bochicchio Ubuntu Developer <https://launchpad.net/~andrewsomething> Debian Maintainer <http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=a.starr.b%40gmail.com> PGP/GPG Key ID: D53FDCB1 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
