I see that the same error was reported for ia64 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=259523 and was closed with the comment: "I am sorry to say that ia64 will not be supported anymore" Since this was the only change in the upload, and #259523 does not give any further details, it seems to me that there was no work on getting it 64bit clean. I wonder if instead of removing ia64 only, all 64bit archs have to be removed? I CC:ed the bug-submitter on this issue, maybe he got more info out of band? I also raised the severity to important, though I ask the bug-submitter to consider raising it to "grave" as IMHO this is release critical. Greetings Helge -- Helge Kreutzmann, Dipl.-Phys.
