linuxMint packages only for i386?

Post by Sannny »

Hello linuxMint developers,

why are the mint*.deb packages all build for the i386 architecture only? The packages doesn't contain any arch dependent binary and works find under Ubuntu 64-Bit for example. It would be fine if there will be arch-independent .deb packages in future. I'm sure that many people enjoy the mintMenu or something else in there amd64/PPC installations.

Greets, Sannny
