in my repos, ftp://ftp-fourier.ujf-grenoble.fr/debian/debian-amd64

because I was waiting for real decisions on how to handle amd64 stuff before 
flooding the BTS ;)

should we send patches in the BTS to ask stuff for pure-amd64 whereas we will 
send _other_ patches in a few months to handle biarch (which is officially 
the _same_ port in debian) ?

this looks problematic to me ...
I doubt we can easily send patches for biarch _and_ pure amd64 and expect pkg 
owner to accept them (especially when these patches will for sure conflict ;)

We need to be clear about what we want before filling the BTS ...

Cheers,
Mik
