We've been waiting based on Neuro's advice that sometimes Arm bugs are
difficult to test for. The buildd is broken in that it appears to
select the wrong header. Because all I have is a remote account on an
Arm box, I can't test X - which is one of the big ones I test before I
upload an arch without consulting a porter first.
Debussy built -6 just fine. I haven't tested since then, but the
changes were really small.
I'll start a build on Debussy now. I can do inital chroot jail testing,
but I'd really like someone to test it running an X client.
Tks,
Jeff Bailey
