During this release cycle I'm hoping to get rid of the 'amd64' kernel flavour in i386. The linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 package is already installable in wheezy with amd64 as a foreign arch. However, the linux-headers-*-amd64 packages are not, as they depend on a specific major version of gcc (e.g. gcc-4.6). I think that a dependency on 'gcc-4.6 | gcc-4.6:i386' might fix that, but what would britney think of it? Ben. -- Ben Hutchings For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism. - Harrison
