Hi, first of all, I'm really sorry for filling 23 bugs without discussing this here. This started as Kyle (Cc) filled #585767 because some packages failed to build on powerpcspe (not official, in debian-ports atm). The gnu triplet there is powerpc-linux-gnuspe so type-handling provides not+linux-gnu. This is also the case for armel since its triplet ends with gnueabi. So packages like gvfs which depend for instance on libudev-dev (>= 0.139) | not+linux-gnu are trigger by wanna-build even if libudev-dev (>= 0.139) is not available since not+linux-gnu is available. Replacing not+linux-gnu with not+linux would be one way to go.
Since Debian-Policy 3.9.0 architecture wild cards are allowed so this dependency would become libudev-dev (>= 0.139) [linux-any] and the type-handling aliases (which are hack according to #585767) could go. Based on this and the fact that some packages are already using them I filled some bugs [0]. Most of the tools are fixed now. The buildd chain is fixed since acpid [1] is built and installed. apt has a fix in its experimental vcs branch to make apt-get build-dep work. pbuilder has a patch in bts. What I learned after filling the bug is that git-buildpackage + cowbuilder don't work (yet).
