Package: debian-policy Version: 3.8.3.0 Severity: wishlist currently section 5.6.8 doesn't say when a package should be in arch all except when source package is arch all (which in turn gives the same argument). I think following statement should be added: "If the content of a package is architeture independent in relation to it's particular use, then the package must have architecture 'all'".
