My package is still stuck on hppa because of this. It has successfully built on every other architecture. Even worse, this is the second time that this situation prevents build-depends from being fulfilled on hppa. Anyhow, given how hppa is already among the architectures that did not re-qualify for Etch, I propose that, from now on, hppa be ignored for deciding whether a package is considered valid for going into Testing. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi
