Re: regarding filtering architectures

[Andreas Tille <andreas@an3as.eu>]

Hi,

Paul has sent me a valuable hint.  I totally missed this information
but will try to fix all our packages that are only available for 64 bit
architectures according to this.  I'm just bouncing this information
to the list in case I'm not the only one who missed this simple option
to exclude 32bit.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
