I did request this, but I may have done so by email to
ftpmaster@debian.org. I cannot find a reference in the BTS.
The message <20041206230717.GA24040@cirrus.madduck.net> I sent to
ftpmaster@debian.org was:
Could you please drop support for all but the i386 arch from all
packages generated by libcwd/non-free? I thought this is to be done
in debian/control, but jvw raises a good point:
00:02 < jvw> anyway -- ask to have the architectures dropped that you don't
want to support
00:03 < madduck> jvw: don't i have to do that in debian/control?
00:03 < jvw> madduck: well, they _can_ build, can't they?
00:03 < madduck> yes, they can.
00:03 < jvw> so, if a porter decides he wants to support libcwd on his favorite
arch, you shouldn't deny that to him
00:04 < jvw> you just ask ftp-master to drop the arches you can't support
Thank you!

ftpmaster is on CC, and I also filed a bug.

Well, it's been waiting there for 210 days now!
Apart, all those bugs were fixed upstream (the author is *very*
prompt and active), and none have gone through the BTS. Do you
really need me to list them?
Cheers,
