Bug#473990: RM: openoffice.org [arm armel mips mipsel]; RoM; perl/sbuild broken

[Rene Engelhard <rene@debian.org>]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: important

please remove the binary packages built from the openoffice.org source
(for reference from grep-excusesi below) for arm, armel, mips and mipsel:

[...]
    out of date on arm: libmythes-dev (from 1:2.3.1-5)
    out of date on mips: libmythes-dev, mozilla-openoffice.org, openoffice.org, openoffice.org-base, openoffice.org-base-core, openoffice.org-calc, openoffice.org-core, openoffice.org-dbg, openoffice.org-dev, openoffice.org-draw, openoffice.org-evolution, openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, openoffice.org-gcj, openoffice.org-gnome, openoffice.org-gtk, openoffice.org-headless, openoffice.org-impress, openoffice.org-kde, openoffice.org-math, openoffice.org-officebean, openoffice.org-presentation-minimizer, openoffice.org-qa-tools, openoffice.org-report-builder, openoffice.org-sdbc-postgresql, openoffice.org-writer, python-uno, ure, ure-dbg (from 1:2.4.0~rc2-1)
    out of date on mipsel: libmythes-dev, mozilla-openoffice.org, openoffice.org, openoffice.org-base, openoffice.org-base-core, openoffice.org-calc, openoffice.org-core, openoffice.org-dbg, openoffice.org-dev, openoffice.org-draw, openoffice.org-evolution, openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, openoffice.org-gcj, openoffice.org-gnome, openoffice.org-gtk, openoffice.org-headless, openoffice.org-impress, openoffice.org-kde, openoffice.org-math, openoffice.org-officebean, openoffice.org-presentation-minimizer, openoffice.org-qa-tools, openoffice.org-report-builder, openoffice.org-sdbc-postgresql, openoffice.org-writer, python-uno, ure, ure-dbg (from 1:2.4.0~rc2-1)
    out of date on armel: libmythes-dev (from 1:2.3.1-5) (but armel isn't keeping up, so nevermind)
[...]

perl/sbuild segfaults when parsing the build-deps line on arm (don't know about armel) and mips(el) and therefore those packages are never successful atm.
But we need to get OOo 2.4 into testing quickly - 2.3.1 is broken; and OOo
is involved in some transitions (and will also be involved in the python one),
so waiting for these buildd probems to be fixed would also mean delaying those
transitions.

Which I think we shouldn't do. mips(el) didn't have OOo binaries in testing
anyway - all 4 archs only have libmythes-dev in testing.

Of course, they can automatically go back into sid (and testing) when the
buildds are fixed...

Rene
