with > architecture specific toolchains? In Debian, by policy, every architecture is built on a native machine. There is no cross-compilation involved. There would probably be lots of problems with builds where some compiled-code would be needed to run on an incompatible architecture. For i386 and AMD64, on the contrary, there would be no problem. > Thanks for all the help so far! -- Jérôme Warnier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> BeezNest

Cleaning /var/lib/dpkg/available

Hi, I've been upgrading my machines since Woody to Sarge, then to Etch. Now, my /var/lib/dpkg/available are huge (15MB), and it seems they never get cleaned. How am I supposed to clean them? Isn't there any automated tools in Debian to do that? Thanks -- Jérôme Warnier <[EM
