I did now have a look at the build failure, and i get :

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    cdebconf-newt-udeb: Depends: libnewt0.52 but it is not installable
  E: Broken packages

I don't know who is to blame for this, probably the powerpc buildd or
something, but this is clearly something of which i am not responsible, since
the d-i build-depends are clearly satisfied on my machine, as i run
dpkg-checkbuilddeps on the svn checkout, and then apt-get install all missing
packages.

If there is something on my part to do there, i will willingly do so, but i
don't really see how my responsabibility could be engaged in this failure, as
the new daily build script don't send me the log mails anymore, and joeyh
collects those for monitoring, so anyone could have a look and fix the issues.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
