OK, my take on this list:

The CATS is a StrongARM machine (IIRC) and won't run the EABI port.

I suppose this is no longer in sid.

	E: Unable to find a source package for libdns21


> W: Unable to locate package libklibc

klibc hasn't been ported over to armel yet:

	make -f /root/klibc-1.4.34/scripts/Kbuild.klibc obj=klcc
	/root/klibc-1.4.34/scripts/Kbuild.klibc:79: usr/klibc/arch/armel/MCONFIG: No such file or directory
	make[2]: *** No rule to make target `usr/klibc/arch/armel/MCONFIG'.  Stop.


> W: Unable to locate package libssp0

libssp (built by gcc-4.1) doesn't work for EABI yet.

linux-image-2.6.18-4-ixp4xx is in the pool.

There's about 14000 packages in the unofficial armel repository, while
there'a currently 18499 in the official arm repository.  This difference
is due to 1933 currently not-yet-built-for-armel source packages.

Most of the missing stuff is probably because of java crap and fortran
crap.
