+# This file lists common architectures for cross-compilation (CPUs, not
+# OSs), and the endian-ness and relative type sizes. It is not needed for
+# native compilation.
+#
+# If you wish to cross-compile APT, and your architecture is not listed
+# here, you should add it, and submit it by email to the APT team at
+# <apt@packages.debian.org>.
+#
+# This is used primarily for the MD5 algorithm.
+# The format is:-
+# CPU ':' endian sizeof: char, int, short, long
