Sounds like those particular scripts have DEB_TARGET_ARCH overriden to force sparc which would actually
make sense when building a 64-bit kernel for a 32-bit userland (which we did in the past).
Which scripts exactly where you using? Please list the steps that lead to the problem.

You can actually add "sparc" to the list of architectures in dpkg with "dpkg --add-architecture sparc"
but you really don't want to install "sparc" packages on "sparc64" in this particular case.
Let's fix the scripts.
