Hi
tested in debian mips, works fine in my machines
replaced all (but one already commented) dpkg call with plain and old
if tests
in the end, checking if the machine is running the correct architecture
is hard to check and should be extremely rare, so i tweak it up and
comment it
thanks

Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country.
