(cc-ing debian-release so that others can assume that the answer I get here may apply to their packages as well...) ICU failed to build on m68k because of an internal compiler error. Last I heard, people were aware of several internal compiler errors and were working on the problem. I'm not in a position to help hunt for internal compiler errors on m68k, so I've just left icu alone in hopes that it will be requeued at some point once some of the compiler issues get resolved. I had attempted a manual build of icu on crest at one point a couple of months ago (when icu was behind packages that depend upon it in the buildd queue), but I got the same problem. I just now logged into crest and tried compiling the stand-alone source file that used to create the internal error, and it no longer does. Would I be helping or hurting things to do a manual build on crest? (I'm running one now, but if someone tells me to just wait for it to be requeued, I'll interrupt the build and clean up my files. ICU takes hours to build on crest.) Is crest a buildd? There's nothing in /etc/motd discouraging people from using crest for manual builds. -- Jay Berkenbilt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
