Right now asterisk has in the build dependency:

  libvpb-dev [linux-any]

If I want to encode this extra limitation (!s390 !s390x) I would have to
use either:

  libvpb-dev [!hurd-any !kfreebsd-any !s390 !s390x]

or:

  libvpb-dev [linux-any], libvpb-dev [!s390 !s390x]

Which of those would be preffered?


As a side note, vpb-driver has: "Architecture: any" for all of its
packages, even though it is linux-specific, AFAIK (and fails to build on
hurd and kfreebsd[1])
