How can I get a list of 32-bit packages that are not built in 64-bit Ubuntu ?

Asked by Fabián Rodríguez

I recently came across an example of package that is not available in Ubuntu 64-bit: partimage.

How can I get a complete list of all packages that are not built for 64-bit Ubuntu ?

This bash script can be helpful:
-----------------
#!/bin/bash
for i in i386 amd64
do
  rm -rf Packages_$i packages_$i
  for j in main restricted universe multiverse
  do
    wget -O - http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/$j/binary-$i/Packages.bz2 | bzcat |grep 'Package'| awk '{print $2}' >> packages_$i
  done
  sort packages_$i | uniq > Packages_$i
done
echo "Packages in i386 that are not in amd64:"
diff Packages_i386 Packages_amd64 |grep '<' | sort | awk '{print $2}'
------------

After running the script I got the followin output:
