You're very welcome. I'm always very glad to get such positive feedback! Tt really
means a lot to me since not everyone understands that even keeping the powerpc and
ppc64 ports in the current state they are is anything but easy.

I understand well the frustrations with the problems people run into, but unfortunately
not all of them are straight-forward to solve. One of the biggest problems is that the
Debian Ports infrastructure doesn't allow polished releases like for the standard Debian
infrastructure due to the lack of stable releases and the lack of the "contrib" and
"non-free" sections.

But I'm trying my best and I really welcome anyone who is willing to help!
