I do think that this sort of ISA-level checking would be best done via
dpkg and package metadata, although this sse-support mechanism will

For the dsfmt package I figured out how to detect at run-time

Python packages in Debian should always be named after the highest-level
module available for import, which in this case appears to be mpd,
hence python[3]-mpd.
However, there is already a well-e

Hi,
I recently helped to update Debian packaging for src:courier,
src:courier-authdaemon and src:courier-unicode, and I rewrote most of the
existing packaging.
These packages desperately need a maintainer who is at least running
