Bug Description

This may be known and even intentional but just to be sure, I am filing a bug.

If I have an app with compiled code, when I use 'click build', it generates a DEBIAN/control file with 'Architecture: all' and a package name of '<pkgname>_<version>_all.click. This may be known and even intentional but just to be sure, I am filing a bug. This maybe ties in with fat packages where 'all' works regardless.

Update (jdstrand): click packages can specify this in their manifest file:
 "architecture": "armhf"

and this will tell click to set up all the fields correctly. This is the recommended procedure until fat packages are supported (at which point, the "architecture" field will still be used, but its contents are TBD).

This bug was fixed in the package click - 0.4.9

---------------
click (0.4.9) saucy; urgency=low

  * Explicitly build-depend on pkg-config, since it's needed even if the
    PackageKit/GLib-related build-dependencies are removed for backporting.
  * Remove some stray documentation references to Ubuntu 13.04.
  * Ensure that the user's overlay database directory exists when
    unregistering a preinstalled package (LP: #1232066).
  * Support packages containing code for multiple architectures, and
    document the "architecture" manifest field (LP: #1214380, #1214864).
  * Correctly pass through return values of commands as the exit status of
    the "click" wrapper.
  * Extend "click info" to take a registered package name as an alternative
    to a path to a Click package file (LP: #1232118).
  * Force unpacked files to be owner-writeable (LP: #1232128).
