Very much agreed. dpkg-hurd is IMHO rather hacked solution. I would imagine that this option could be useful for other things too, eg. initial NFS-Root installation of host of different CPU type (although debian-installer might provide another solution here too, but then we start getting off topic). -- Brian May <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
