Subject: brittle implementation of ubuntutools.misc.host_architecture()

Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2010 23:35:41 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: ubuntu-dev-tools
Version: 0.101
Severity: normal

host_architecture() uses os.uname() to determine host architecture. 
However, uname() returns a "machine hardware name", which can be 
something quite different, e.g.:

$ dpkg --print-architecture
hppa
$ python -c 'from ubuntutools.misc import host_architecture; print host_architecture()'
parisc64

Most importantly, host_architecture() returns the wrong thing for an 
i386 system with amd64 kernel:

$ dpkg --print-architecture
i386
$ python -c 'from ubuntutools.misc import host_architecture; print host_architecture()'
amd64

   [ Siegfried-Angel Gevatter Pujals ]
