When that plan goes into place, will the Architecture: all be built under all the different architectures? I have a package that fails to build under some archetectures, because of the heavy duty dependancies necessary to build an Architecture: all package. I am trying to figure out if it would be a good idea to split that source package in two. I am aware of Build-Depends-Indep and this kludge: http://asylum.madhouse-project.org/blog/2012/01/26/buildd-workarounds/ but it feels too kludgy. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117
