From my limited knowledge of deb packages the basics are already
available : Norbets deb plus the other i386 packages are needed to be put together.
can you clarify this?
The ftp.squeak.org/debian repository i386 architecture [1] also contained packages : squeak squeak-vm squeak-image3.9 squeak-image3.9univ squeak-sources3.9

The squeak package installs a starter 'squeak' shell script that conviently copies the images and source to your current directory.
So putting the amd64 package with these other packages would provide a complete and equivalent amd64 installation.
to me. I put this package together for you in only a few minutes so I'm sure it is not perfect. What might be missing are dependencies. The only one I added are ia32-libs. Everything else which is missing need to be put in the dependencies of this archive. But if there are really i386 packags that are needed (I doubt it) than the trouble just starts again because you won't be able to install them on amd64. I don't know if you are the only user of the package but tell me if you have trouble I'll have look what I can do.

The package worked for me perfectly. The dependencies were resolved correctly in a fresh debian etch installation.
