If there's a bug in installer.x.template, stub.template or
backend.template, all packages affected with this bug need to be
recreated in order to get the fix.

One example is the arch check in backend.template. I changed it, so
that x86 packages can be installed on x86_64 systems, too. Even if
this fix was released, users wouldn't benefit from it and still have
to wait for the developers to get the new developer environment and
recreate their packages.
