Package: module-assistant Version: 0.10.11.0 Severity: wishlist
Use-case: I have a diskless machine running Debian Live, which I use for TV-out from time to time (otherwise it's just doing internet radio). In order to get the propietary nvidia on it I had to build it on my other machine first. I can't build it on the same machine due to space constraints (it's impossible to install all necessary build tools on the running live system). This is now a problem as my only other machine now runs amd64. I was able to install the correct headers with 'dpkg --force-architecture' and used the '-l' switch to use them, but the package is still '_amd64'. Is there a way to force module-assistant to build a 'i386' package? It can probably be done with a chroot, but this is very inconvenient. Regards, Andrei P.S. I did have a look through the source, but... -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages module-assistant depends on: ii libtext-wrapi18n-perl 0.06-6 internationalized substitute of Te ii perl 5.10.0-13 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages module-assistant recommends: ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.05-4 Using libc functions for internati Versions of packages module-assistant suggests: ii build-essential 11.4 Informational list of build-essent ii whiptail 0.52.2-11.3 Displays user-friendly dialog boxe -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
