Just to clarify what happened here, the new options parsing that was implemented caused the (granted, incorrect) command "dpkg-architecture -a -t -qDEB_HOST_ARCH" to fail with the error dpkg-architecture: error: unknown Debian architecture -t, you must specify GNU system type, too whereas before (for at least the past 8 years) it would report the architecture. Note, there should probably be a period at the end of the message. Cheers, -- James GPG Key: 4096R/331BA3DB 2011-12-05 James McCoy <james...@debian.org>
