True. Incidentally I was asking about that syntax just yesterday in #emdebian. The syntax is not part of the multiarch spec but it is part of the multiarch cross spec [1] (see section "Cross-architecture dependencies") which extends it. As wookey said, dpkg and apt (from wheezy) already understand this syntax. wanna-build and dak on the other hand dont but would need to know for such packages making it into Debian archives. >From the formal perspective of working with multiarch in dose3, I can just hope that no package-naming solution is ever used/introduced anymore for a problem which can be solved by multiarch in a much more elegant fashion. cheers, josch [1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchCross -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
