[Aptitude-devel] Bug#760608: aptitude: No format string for package architecture

[Rogier]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.11-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

With the advent of multi-arch systems, the architecture of a
package shown by aptitude is no longer implicitly known. Please
add a format string for a package's architecture.

Kind regards, and thanks for your effort maintaining this valuable
tool.

Rogier.
