Let's find out; just execute 'apt -d upgrade' or if you only want to test it 
with a few pkgs use 'apt -d install cups cups-client cups-libs'.  (-d 
download only).  During the download the architecture will be shown, and this 
can be checked in the dir /var/cache/apt/archives as well (use ls -l cups*).
