Hi Yokota, yokota, on 2024-05-05: > I was drop s390x from python-pyppmd build architecture list to pass > testing migration. I see you ajusted the Architecture field to include all currently supported Debian architectures except s390x. While this would avoid building attempts on s390x, this is actually not ideal, because future architectures will have to be added by hand. Besides, if s390x were to be supported by upstream, then it would be necessary to actively bring back s390x architecture to the list, assuming we notice the added support in the first place. If you were to want to signify the package does not support other than little-endian architectures, then the current recommended practice is for the source package to build depend on the package architecture-is-little-endian, and bring Architecture field back to the value "any". All that being said, I don't believe declaring any form of architecture limitation is needed, because the test failure at build time prevents the production of packages for unsupported architectures. Please revert Architecture field change; you may add the architecture-is-little-endian as build dependency if you feel better about not trying to build on other systems, but it's not entirely needed in my opinion. In any case, the package would not migrate to testing, because despite the architecture restrictions, Debian infrastructure[1] will continue expecting s390x packages to be built; the following migration excuses will continue to appear: * missing build on s390x * arch:s390x not built yet, autopkgtest delayed there I opened the package removal bug #1070469 for python-pyppmd on s390x[2]. This will resolve the problem on the infrastructure side, but requires human intervention from the ftpmaster team, so it may take a little time. I used `reportbug ftp.debian.org` to get a template email with all the metainformation needed, and filled the blanks with our observations.
