It does. For example, classpath. http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?excuse=classpath Excuse for classpath * 28 days old (needed 10 days) * classpath/hppa unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj-common * classpath/mips unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj-common * classpath/mipsel unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj-common * Valid candidate If you would set the Architecture field properly, then it could be set properly for the classpath package as well and it could actually go into testing. When you make a decission to sudenly stop building on some archs, you should change the Architecture field accordingly. This is in the Policy 5.6.7 http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Architecture - Adam
