[arch-general] Preferred CHOST

Hi :)

why is the wanted default CHOST ARCHITECTURE-unknown-linux-gnu instead
of ARCHITECTURE-arch-linux-gnu?

$ grep CHOST /etc/makepkg.conf
CHOST="x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"

I wasn't aware of this, until I started testing Claws [1], [2].

Other distros usually prefer self-promotion.

Regards,
Ralf

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: check the wanted Arch Linux default
CHOST in /etc/makepkg.conf ;)
