Not really possible for APT to check the validity of another programs
options.  However, it can check that the exit status of this call to
dpkg is 0 and issue an error or warning otherwise.


** Also affects: apt (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Summary changed:

- aptitude update fails to handle multiarch when given quoted dpkg::options
+ abort on failure of "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" (e.g. when invalid 
DPkg::options)

** Summary changed:

- abort on failure of "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" (e.g. when invalid 
DPkg::options)
+ no error or warning shown when "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" fails 
(e.g. with invalid DPkg::options)
