Well, if you try to build artha in a pbuilder chroot it is just missing python.

Did you checked the attachments to my mail? Everything is ready there.

Yes - a source package has no arch. The binary package can be builded at
different arches - but this is of no interest for the sponsor because he
will build the package himself. So there is no need for uploading binary
packages.

A, sorry for my ignorance - you are not only the author of Debian
packaging stuf but also the author of artha code - so you actually
are one of the involved parties. ;-))
So if I where you I would ask WordNet authors whether they are
interested to either replace their TclTk code by artha or at least
add it to the upstream source of their next release. IMHO artha is
a nice replacement for wnb.

Great
