Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Errors were encountered while processing:

dpkg-architecture is part of dpkg-dev - do you *really* want to use this
in your postinst? Shouldn't the postinst be generated during package
build with proper variable substitution?
Would the postinst work properly in a multiarch installation:
  libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:amd64 *and* libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386
(I did look at neither the source package nor the postinst script.)


cheers,

Andreas
