gaim 1.5 for powerpc missing ?
'allo,
I've been using backports to track a few things like spamassasin, spamc,
clamav, gaim, etc. I run a stable sarge (except for few, tightly controlled
BPO packages as mentioned previously).
Recently I've noticed that my gaim-data package is being "held back" and
looking around on it seems that gaim_1.5.0+1.5.1cvs20051015-2bpo1_powerpc.deb
is missing from backports. Is this what is causing gaim-data to be held back
from being upgraded to -2bpo1 ? I'm not sure what I've done incorrectly for
gaim, I've got the same model type of setup for the other backport packages,
and they all work fine.
