PROGRAM:
NAME
dpkg-architecture - set and determine the architecture for package building
SYNOPSIS
dpkg-architecture [option...] [command]
DESCRIPTION
dpkg-architecture provides a facility to determine and set the build and host architecture
for package building.
The build architecture is always determined by an external call to dpkg(1), and can not be
set at the command line.
You can specify the host architecture by providing one or both of the options --host-arch
and --host-type. The default is determined by an external call to gcc(1), or the same as
the build architecture if CC or gcc are both not available. One out of --host-arch and
--host-type is sufficient, the value of the other will be set to a usable default. Indeed,
it is often better to only specify one, because dpkg-architecture will warn you if your
choice does not match the default.
COMMANDS
-l, --list
Print the environment variables, one each line, in the format VARIABLE=value. This
is the default action.
-e, --equal architecture
Check for equality of architecture (since dpkg 1.13.13). It compares the current
or specified Debian host architecture against architecture, to check if they are
equal. This action will not expand the architecture wildcards. Command finishes
with an exit status of 0 if matched, 1 if not matched.
-i, --is architecture-wildcard
Check for identity of architecture (since dpkg 1.13.13). It compares the current
or specified Debian host architecture against architecture-wildcard after having
expanded it as an architecture wildcard, to check if they match. Command finishes
with an exit status of 0 if matched, 1 if not matched.
-q, --query variable-name
Print the value of a single variable.
-s, --print-set
Print an export command. This can be used to set the environment variables using
eval.
-u, --print-unset
Print a similar command to --print-unset but to unset all variables.
-c, --command command
Execute a command in an environment which has all variables set to the determined
value.
-L, --list-known
Print a list of valid architecture names. Possibly restricted by one or more of
the matching options --match-wildcard, --match-bits or --match-endian (since dpkg
1.17.14).
-?, --help
Show the usage message and exit.
--version
Show the version and exit.
OPTIONS
-a, --host-arch architecture
Set the host Debian architecture.
-t, --host-type gnu-system-type
Set the host GNU system type.
-A, --target-arch architecture
Set the target Debian architecture (since dpkg 1.17.14).
-T, --target-type gnu-system-type
Set the target GNU system type (since dpkg 1.17.14).
-W, --match-wildcard architecture-wildcard
Restrict the architectures listed by --list-known to ones matching the specified
architecture wildcard (since dpkg 1.17.14).
-B, --match-bits architecture-bits
Restrict the architectures listed by --list-known to ones with the specified CPU
bits (since dpkg 1.17.14). Either 32 or 64.
-E, --match-endian architecture-endianness
Restrict the architectures listed by --list-known to ones with the specified
endianness (since dpkg 1.17.14). Either little or big.
-f, --force
Values set by existing environment variables with the same name as used by the
scripts are honored (i.e. used by dpkg-architecture), except if this force flag is
present. This allows the user to override a value even when the call to
dpkg-architecture is buried in some other script (for example
dpkg-buildpackage(1)).
TERMS
build machine
The machine the package is built on.
host machine
The machine the package is built for.
target machine
The machine the compiler is building for. This is only needed when building a cross-
toolchain, one that will be built on the build architecture, to be run on the host
architecture, and to build code for the target architecture.
Debian architecture
The Debian architecture string, which specifies the binary tree in the FTP archive.
Examples: i386, sparc, hurd-i386.
Debian architecture wildcard
A Debian architecture wildcard is a special architecture string that will match any
real architecture being part of it. The general form is <kernel>-<cpu>. Examples:
linux-any, any-i386, hurd-any.
GNU system type
An architecture specification string consisting of two parts separated by a hyphen:
cpu and system. Examples: i586-linux-gnu, sparc-linux-gnu, i686-gnu, x86_64-netbsd.
multiarch triplet
The clarified GNU system type, used for filesystem paths. This triplet does not
change even when the baseline ISA gets bumped, so that the resulting paths are stable
over time. The only current difference with the GNU system type is that the CPU part
for i386 based systems is always i386. Examples: i386-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu.
Example paths: /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/, /usr/lib/i386-kfreebsd-gnu/.
