It's not your system.  There's an issue with the package building cluster
that's putting the wrong version number (12.0 instead of 12) into the
architecture string.

It's a known issue, they're working on it, we just need to be patient while
they fix it.  :)

(Although, all previous mentions of this were regarding 13.0; this is the
first time I've seen the issue with 12.0 come across the mailing lists.)
