Hi Thijs, I'm using dh-make-perl to create debian packages from perl modules. That one sets architecture to 'all' for perl modules that have no c dependency. 'apt-file update' does not fetch 'all' architecture Content files. Now the question is if it should? Does 'all' architecture exist in Debian? Or is it a dh-make-perl "feature || bug"? Thank you and sorry for the confusion with 'any'... Jozef.
