for powerpc/powerpc64, i defined subarch, and let kernel-package match those subarch to the real ARCH stuff. I was not really aware of --arch back then, or at least didn't think of it though, but then the packages for powerpc64 flavour are arch powerpc, but are built with ARCH=ppc64, so this is the best way to handle it. See /usr/share/kernel-package/rules for the way i do powerpc and powerpc64 stuff. Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
