I think the only thing which is needed is that the source package gets
uploaded to unstable. For that it needs to change the suite from unreleased
to unstable. Of course the source package will then only be picked up for building
on hppa as soon as it hits the debian-ports archive (which is being automatically
filled by the debian archive).

Yes, I dropped Aurelien an email. Nevertheless I think the steps above are the right ones.

Yes, needs to change to unstable.

That would be great!
