Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

I built a package myself, my PC is 32-bit (output of dpkg-architecture 
-qDEB_HOST_ARCH is i386) and I built a package myself. It is called 
<package-name>-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
This is the control file of the package:
Source: wallch
.....
Build-Depends: qt4-qmake, libqt4-dev, debhelper (>=7)
....
Architecture: any
Depends: mpg321, imagemagick, libnotify-bin, ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}
Description: ...

As you can see it says: Architecture: any (!)

I have to say that lintian doesn't output any errors for my package
(even with -i, -I options)

So the main problem is: When I open my package with ubuntu software center 
happens something buggy:
This is the first try:

As you can see it says "is not available for this type of computer
(i386). This is quite weird. I built the package in a PC with i386
architecture and the control file says 'any architecture', and it says
that is not available for the computer?

So, I close ubuntu software center and reopened the same DEB and...:
http://i52.tinypic.com/29eq9gm.png

Error gone!

Very strange! Since then, sometimes I get this error message but sometimes not. 
This bug had been noticed and a friend of mine as well.
If you need the DEB package for information, please see:

Thanks :)
