Package: apt-utils
Version: 0.7.25
Severity: important

I am maintaining a small debian pool (squeeze) for my project and it has
both i386 and amd64 packages. Now I need to create Index files
(binary-ARCH/Packages.gz and Contents-ARCH) files for the same..
Even though the pool contains packages for different architectures..it is
given in the apt-ftparchive manual that using a conffile., generating
separate index files are possible..
*  Conffile*
Dir {
    ArchiveDir "mirror";
    OverrideDir "mirror/indices";
    CacheDir "mirror/tmp";
    };

    TreeDefault {
    Directory "pool";
    Contents "dists/squeeze";
    };

    Tree "dists/squeeze" {
    Sections "main";
    Architectures "i386";
    };

    BinDirectory "pool/squeeze/main" {
    Packages "dists/squeeze/main/binary-i386/Packages";
    BinOverride "override.sque.main";
    Contents "dists/squeeze/Contents-i386";
    };

    Default {
    Packages {
         Extensions ".deb";
         Compress ". gzip";
     };

     Contents {
         Compress "gzip";
     };
    };
and I expect "*apt-ftparchive generate conffile*"  to create index files
which contains only i386 packages..but that is not happening and the index
files contains the whole lit of both the architectures..
Is this is a problem with my conf file or a bug in apt-ftparchive..
