Sigh. It looks like e2fsprogs is blocked behind some build machines
being slow, and a bunch of problems with eglibc:
http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=e2fsprogs
I guess I should have checked this before building e2fsprogs and uploading
it. I can't do much about lame build machines on ia64, sparc, and kfreebsd-*,
but I could force install eglibc 2.10.2-9 (hopefully that won't break dependencies
too badly on my unstable build machine), rebuild, and reupload. The downside
of doing that is it will reset the clock, and it won't necessarily help given
the fact that we're blocked on some build machines on the above-mentioned
architecture.
Thoughts, suggestions?
Thanks,
