Hi,
I've been thinking on implementing this for a long time. As
Robert has presented an implementation to the Architecture
handling problem that does not convince me at all, so instead
of just sitting here and criticize his design I've coded mine.
The idea is to introduce architecture aliases, they will only take
effect on the source package and will get expanded when building
the binary package so there's not need to touch major infrastructure
to support this, also they respect current syntax. They can be used
on Build-Depends and friends and on Architecture fields on specific
packages.
The aliases are of the form:
Alias Example Expansion
<kernel>-any hurd-any hurd-i386
linux-any i386 powerpc alpha arm ...
any-<cpu> any-i386 hurd-i386 kfreebsd-i386 i386 ...
There are two other cases just for consistency:
linux-<cpu> linux-i386 i386
any-any any
I've a added as well a new option (-n normalize) to dpkg-architecture
so Maintainers can use it to get the alias expansions. Try it to see
the results.
regards,
guillem

Description:
Implement Debian architecture alias support, and normalization via the new
dpkg-architecture -n option.
.
Will take a virtual arch like <kernel>-any or any-<cpu> and expand to all
available arches. And will also normalize linux-<cpu> to <cpu> for
consistency.
