That's what I mean: my Debian OS is *NOT* 64 bit -- uname -a *DOES NOT*
tell you about the OS but rather the capability of the machine hardware.
If the build script makes the same assumption and attempts to build 64 bit
packages based on uname's out then this should be a bug -- as shown in my
situation.
That's the reason why I also show the command
$ getconf LONG_BIT
32
Also, running file on the a.c file gives me 32 bit.

$ gcc a.c
wooly Mon Jul 23:11:34:26 (194) /var/tmp
$ file a.out
a.out: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, not stripped
