Why is the list of architectures restricted in debian/control?
LERC does not support bigendian architectures
Might be better to use Architecture: any and just have the build fail on
those architectures, any new LE architectures won't need changes to the
architecture list.
I've recently learned about the architecture-properties package which
provides architecture-is-<32|64>-bit and
architecture-is-<little|big>-endian. Using this makes the package
BD-Uninstallable on architectures which don't match the requirement.
osmium-tool uses Spaten which only supports little endian, so I've added
architecture-is-little-endian to its build dependencies to make this
explicit.
This seems like a good option for lerc too, no time will be wasted
building the package on big endian architectures where it will just fail.
Kind Regards,
Bas
