The source packages are the same, but the compiled packages are different. So you (James) either need to download both i386 and hurd-i386 packages or download the source package and build it manually. (Which is some work, I'd guess, and might not even reduce download size as the source packages are sometimes larger than the binary packages.) -- Niklas
