Apologies for typo. I mean new versions in unstable.

Most packages are hardware-agnostic. But cpuinfo does not.
This time, as I mentioned, it is the new CPU model that caused the problem.
Even this can be patched out via a stable-pu process,
I cannot guarantee that anyone can compile it with any cpu they own,
if not disabling hardware-related dh_auto_test completely.

If anyone else want to build from source, I suppose that nocheck profile is a easy workaround.

Thanks,
