[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#805692: RM: octave-ltfat [powerpc] -- ROM; FTBFS

[Rafael Laboissiere <rafael@laboissiere.net>]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: pkg-octave-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org

Dear ftpmasters,

Please remove octave-ltfat on powerpc. The package fails to build from 
source due to problems in the unit testing that happens in the powerpc 
architecture.  This is preventing the migration of octave-ltfat into 
testing.  We requested help on this issue from the upstream maintainers 
of the package, but no solution has been found.

Thanks,

Rafael Laboissière
