Why? Which problem are you trying to solve? Doing such change will fail to automatically discover if gloo start working on other architectures, and require extra work to keep the list of architectures up to date as Debian evolves. As far as I can see, the disadvantage of trying to build on non-supported architectures is a few wasted CPU cycles, while the advantage is less human time spent on package maintenance. Did I miss something? To me, saving humans time is more valuable than saving CPU time. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
