cc @sur5r
x86_64
is not a valid DEB_HOST_ARCH
.
What does dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
and dpkg --print-architecture
return for you?
Sorry, not sure how I got the above message, the correct one that I was referring is this:
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'universe/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'http://debian.sur5r.net/i3 focal InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'
Output of the commands you asked:
mete@star:~$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386
mete@star:~$ dpkg --print-architecture
amd64
Well, I see you point.
But given Ubuntu has stopped doing i386 altogether, I see no point in further complicating the installation instructions. Anyone having i386 enabled on focal and later will know why they are doing this and should know, how to adjust their sources.list accordingly.
I could add an empty i386 architecture to the repo to make the warning go away, but I fear this will only add confusion.
Sounds good, thanks for taking a look. I’ll close this issue.
I realized this is already raised with i3/i3#4550
When using ubuntu repo, apt update shows notice because -I think- there is no i386 build:
Would it be good (and work for armhf too) to add something like
[arch='dpkg-architecture | grep DEB_HOST_ARCH= | cut -f2 -d_']
toecho "deb http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/...
command in the instructions ?
