Lamont,

Since you are listed as one of the maintainers of Packages-arch-specific (last 
edited on 2008/04/15 16:42:48 lamont Exp $) could you please ensure that the 
source packages of ara and spamoracle will *not* be autobuilt on the 
following architectures:

alpha, arm, armel, hppa, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, s390.

The reason is that the above listed architectures don't have ocamlopt (the 
native compiler) to built their arch-dependant parts. For these architectures 
are provided <pkg>-byte binary packages which are arch: all and which are 
built only once and run on all arches.
