In that case, please remove it from the Architecture line in your source package until it actually works. (Note that I filed this bug on buildd.debian.org and CCed you, rather than filing it on mindi directly, since my bug report was primarily about the central Packages-arch-specific file used by the buildds to avoid building some packages on some architectures.) > mindi-busybox is built for amd64: > http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=mindi-busybox&searchon=names&suite=unstable§ion=all That's as may be, but Packages-arch-specific says it shouldn't be, and if it should be then Packages-arch-specific needs to be fixed.
