control: tags -1 patch control: block -1 by 687900 Hi Helmut,
piuparts is a policy checker. Multi-arch still ain't defined in policy. And quite frankly I'm annoyed by all the multi-arch proponents and users who don't care about documenting this properly, yet demand other people also work on this. So I don't think I'll be happy to support this until #687900 is fixed. And then I don't like your implementation, thus removing the tag patch, as I don't consider this patch ready for the reasons stated on irc. (Also you said you're not sure what it breaks...) < helmut> | h01ger: I have a patch now that makes that piuparts and "piuparts --arch amd64 -a libc6:i386" work. not sure what it breaks. I'll submit it to the bts anyway. < h01ger> | at least "piuparts --arch amd64 -a libc6:i386" makes more sense than "piuparts --arch=amd64 libc6_2.19-4_i386.deb" < helmut> both work < h01ger> | how should piuparts in the latter case know that you intend to use a multi-arch setup (as opposed to assuming you want to install the wrong debs for that arch) < helmut> | h01ger: in both cases it simply assumes that you really want to install the packages mentioned. < h01ger> | thats your assumption but i dont think its a good one < h01ger> | the latter should really just produce failure < h01ger> | and the former probably should also not work, unless you also provide an "--extra-multi-arch i386" switch too I miss this --extra-multi-arch switch in the patch. cheers, Holger
