I wouldn't mind updating the lessdisks package if it is easier to help me out than preserving backwards compatibility. I just haven't had time yet to figure out myself what exactly has changed, so help is much appreciated. And in worst case, I can possibly even drop the clever (ab)use of type-handling, and instead hardcode the archs with known dependencies (but that would make it harder to try out lessdisks with new archs).
