You would be missing mipsel then. :) > SO I guess we really only need to trigger a rebuild for rJava -- and possibly > tell the mips builders to ignore this package as it also has > s/mips/mipsel/ > default-jdk [!arm !hppa !kfreebsd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64 !hurd-i386 !mips] > > but it should really be skipped on all of these/ > > Can you remind how I do that again? > > Dirk > Set the Architecture field to list only acceptable architectures should do. From there, the buildds should mark it as "Auto-Not-For-Us" and ignore it. Mind you, you still have to file a removal bug for binaries on architectures that (as a consequence) will no longer be built. An alternative is to Build-Depend on a package that is available on exactly the architectures your package supports[1]. Again, it would still need the removal bug, but that is another possibility. ~Niels [1] This makes for e.g. Build-Depends on an -dev package only available on certain architectures. I am not certain that it makes sense in this particular case. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
