Maintenance of Gnome Packages in unstable
Folks,
How are the Gnome Packages maintained in sparc unstable?
Right now gnome-core is dependant on gnome-session >= 2.4.1
which doesn't exist as a sparc package as far as I can tell.
Is Gnome known to be broken in sparc unstable?

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnome-core: Depends: gnome-applets (>= 2.4.0) but it is not going to be
installed
Depends: gnome-panel (>= 2.4.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: gnome-session (>= 2.4.1) but 2.2.2-4 is to be installed
Depends: file-roller (>= 2.4.1) but 2.4.0.1-1 is to be installed
