Thank for review, it's been on my TODO for a while..

http://experimental.debian.net/fetch.php?&pkg=gdb&ver=6.6.dfsg-2&arch=armel&stamp=1187940423&file=log&as=raw

needs gobjc + gcj-4.2 build dependencies. I'm currently bootstrapping
gcj so that leaves just removing gobjc build dependency on armel.
Then we need to poke drow.

This just need gcj + reschedule of build.

#436213. Mike was happy anough to add my patch to webkit while
the nspr patch seems to have falled to void.. Let's see if poking helps.

Long term solution is the g77->gfortran transition[0]. As part of that I
need to find out why refblas3 doesn't build on selected architectures[1]
and then upload lapack3 to experimental. Then it would be more natural
to upload experimental versions of refblas3, lapack3 and python-numeric
to unreleased.. Now I just need to find time to execute the plan.

It needs gcj-4.2 as well[2]:


For building states, you can use buildd.net[3] to find
where the package is. The Failed/Dep-Wait/Building/Not-For-Us
lists need walking through as well.

Needs manual gnuab admin action to remove afaik.

I'll comment.
