It's a bit soon to declare that there's "no progress" on the hppa bugs, I think; AFAIK this bug *was* fixed once (KDE packages were building), and then it was somehow reintroduced, and we're waiting for some FTBFS fixes in glibc before it gets uploaded again (since the new binutils breaks it on many archs). > It looks like the following need rebuilds (or removal from testing) > for the GNOME C++ cluster to enter testing: > * timfx > * libbuffy > * mysql-query-browser > * patchage > * quickplot All of these are in the process of being binNMUed; most are done on all archs with the exception of m68k; timfx also needs a build still on hppa (but apparently only due to buildd backlog, not due to uic). libbuffy has even gotten into testing already.

Seems to have been hand-built by someone on hppa. <sigh> Given back on ia64. > * mysql++ -- FTBFS on sparc, looks like a transitory buildd problem -- requeue? What problem is this?
