Their example says to do:

Architecture: i386 ia64 alpha amd64 arm* hppa m32r* m68k* mips mipsel
powerpc ppc64* s390 s390x* sh3* sh3eb* sh4* sh4eb* sparc

But the debian packages are built on the following Linux archs:

Architecture: i386 ia64 alpha amd64 armel* hppa mips mipsel powerpc s390 sparc

I put (*) next to items that differ between the two lists. Should I go
with the example and add in armel? Or should I just go with the
current supported debian archs?
