The buildlogs suggest that _ftext on mips/mipsel is the only odd one out. Ignoring it on other architectures as well does no harm, so a workaround for this special case is easy to implement. > Or maybe the new > dpkg symbol handling will land soon enough, or so I hear. Long-term that's certainly preferable. Thiemo
