I don't think I got round to updating apt-setup for the new --add-architecture scheme; but the apt-setup/multiarch template does exist and I think that at this point it would count as a bug-fix to make it work properly. Given that, you could at least boot the installer with apt-setup/multiarch=i386. I think that apt-setup/multiarch=i386 should be the default on amd64; but I'm less sure that I could convince anyone that that deserves a freeze exception. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
