Failed to fetch deb about collector HOT 4 CLOSED

Note that it fetches the 64bit ones fine and my arch is 64 bit:

from collector.

fix is to specify the arch as described here http://askubuntu.com/questions/743814/unable-to-find-expected-entry-main-binary-i386-packages-chrome

so the full line reads:

deb [arch=amd64] https://packages.pganalyze.com/ubuntu/trusty/ stable main

@oppianmatt Interesting - I wonder why its not picking this up correctly on its own (it does for me).

Do you run inside a virtual machine / use the 32-bit libc packages as in that Ask Ubuntu thread / anything that might confuse the architecture detection there?

This is now the default in the docs - even though I haven't found out the root cause of why this happens on 64-bit systems, it doesn't hurt to make the architecture explicit.

Thanks again for reporting this and sharing the fix!
