I never said anything of the kind.

If the m68k team can make the port happen without messing up the rest
of Debian, great.  But from my perspective the huge delays on the
autobuilders are a disaster.  Without actually fixing this, we cannot
permit an architecture that is unable to keep up with autobuilds to
slow everything else down.

For example, the inattention of the porting team to the guile-1.6 bug
means that gnucash is at 2.0.2 on every architecture except m68k,
where it is version *1.8.10*.
