Hello, xmovie does not build on alpha. Quite a while ago I created a patch and put it into BTS. Since I am not a native C programmer the patch might not be optimal, but at least xmovie builds on alpha. Upstream also has alpha optimization included, so alpha support is intended. The maintainer of xmovie has not responded to the bug report and the patch (this is already 210 days in BTS). I recently asked him via BTS if there is anything to be done to get this patch included but nothing happened. Can some debian developer apply this (or a refined version of this) patch and NMU xmovie ? Alternativly can such a person point me to the appropriate place for such requests ?
