Don't alter the architecture of the package as you have done. Just revert your changes to dpkg-architecture and leave it as i386. Subarchitecture support is (I'm told) being worked on, but requires quite substantially more work than just a quick hack to the name of the .deb. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
