Title:
  Provide example for apt_pkg.config.find("APT::Architecture")

Status in “python-apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: python-apt

  In one of the example programs (/usr/share/doc/python-apt/examples/config.py) an api 'apt_pkg.Architecture' is used to retrive the apt architecture.
  But trying to use this fails with following error

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "arch.py", line 5, in <module>
      print apt_pkg.Architecture
  AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Architecture'

  The api 'apt_pkg.Config.Find("APT::Architecture")' works properly.

  
  Example program:

  #!/usr/bin/python
  import apt_pkg

  apt_pkg.init()
  print "Find api: " + apt_pkg.Config.Find("APT::Architecture")
  print "Direct arch value: " + apt_pkg.Architecture
