Bug Description

The i8k kernel module has had 64-bit support now for a while, but the i8kutils package is not being built for the amd64 architecture:

# apt-get install i8kutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package i8kutils
# uname -a
Linux xps 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# lsmod | grep i8k
i8k 15256 0

Please build this package and release to >= Intrepid as soon as possible. Thanks!

The debian bug report says it can just be compiled for amd64 and works.

Does anybody use Ubuntu Intrepid nowadays? I think this is not considered a bug anymore. All supported Ubuntu flavors today have an amd64 version of this package.
