Many Packages in binary-m68, alpha, ... come without source and debian
can't supply them anymore. The reason is that those archs are behind
the i386 archs and thus the sources are already removed, even though
old binary packages still remain in non-i386 archs. That violates the
gpl.
I already opened a bug against ftp.debian.org, because it also breaks
the non-i386 distributions when some dependency is unmet for some
binary-all package thats too new. If nothing is done about it soon I
will write a script to update that bug regularry with a list of files
out of sync and files without source.
May the Source be with you.
