How to check what matches linux-any?

PlanetDebian

Usually Architecture: any is recommended in debian/control except upstream explicitly doesn't/won't support that architecture.

In practical use case, linux-any is useful to exclude hurd architecture. (Previously it is also useful to exclude kfreebsd)

Here is the simple script to check whether specific architecutre matches linux-any or not.

2024/12/28: UPDATE

I've got feedback that the following command should be used. (Thanks Cyril Brulebois and Guillem Jover)

dpkg-architecture -L -W linux-any

or

dpkg-architecture --match-wildcard linux-any --list-known

NOTE: the following example is wrong, but for a record what I did wrongly, keep it as is:

#!usr/bin/bash

TARGETS="
amd64
arm64
armel
armhf
i386
mips64el
ppc64el
riscv64
s390x
alpha
hppa
hurd-amd64
hurd-i386
loong64
m68k
powerpc
ppc64
sh4
sparc64
x32
"

for d in $TARGETS; do
    dpkg-architecture -i linux-any -a $d
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    echo -e "[\e[32m\e[40mOK\e[0m] $d is linux-any (dpkg-architecture -i linux-any -a $d)"
    else
    echo -e "[\e[31m\e[40mNG\e[0m] $d is NOT linux-any (dpkg-architecture -i linux-any -a $d)"
    fi
done
