Bug#655557: live-build: Please add armhf support



Package: live-build
Version: 3.0~a40-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

     I'm working on installation Debian on Freescale QuickStart board.
     And I found that armhf is still not supported by live-build.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     Use live-build to create an armhf img.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     armhf is not supported.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     armhf imgs created

Please review my patch if it is good for inclusion.
This patch is base on latest git tree [1] and made by format-patch.

Yours Sincerely,
Paul
