[Sisuite-devel] systemimager-debian - patches for the x86_64 support

[Geoffroy Vallée]

Hi all,

New patches for systemimager-debian, also available in my branch (r83). With
these patches, i can create Debian packages on x86_64. Actually i tested
my branch on both x86 and x86_64 and the package creation process is just fine.
Note that a patch is a new one that has to be included into the 'patches'
directory; this patch is in attachment and not directly into the mail since the
patch is pretty big.

Thanks,

Committed - thanks for repoking me Geoffroy.

I've been quite happy with your changes of late, feel free to commit
to trunk directly and I'll just review the changes. Just make sure to
add an entry to debian/changelog in each changeset (see my commits for
reference).

Works for me and of course i will keep you in the loop to let you know what is
the current status. You are the systemimager-debian master, i am sure i will
still need your help periodically. :-)

Thanks for everything Dann.
