Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.35 debootstrap was install per the manual install method in section "D.3.2. Install debootstrap" of http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apds03.html.en
The result: # /usr/sbin/debootstrap --arch=amd64 squeeze /mnt/deb /http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian E: Couldn't work out current architecture Removing the "=" makes no difference. This is on an up-to-date CentOS 5.6 system: # uname -a Linux xxx.yyy.local 2.6.18-194.11.4.el5 #1 SMP Tue Sep 21 05:04:09 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I suggest that debootstrap should accept the --arch specification rather than try to "work out" what it is by whatever method. Or if its attempt to "work out" the architecture fails, it should offer the user a chance to over ride its failure and simply accept the architecture specified.
