Package: ftp.debian.org Recent versions of monotone FTBFS on alpha because of severe, upstream, architecture-specific bugs detected by the package's testsuite. I am working with upstream to get those bugs fixed, but for now, monotone should be considered not supported on alpha.
I anticipate the 0.37-2 or 0.37-3 build of monotone to be suitable for testing on all other architectures, but there is an old (0.35-2) alpha build of monotone in unstable which will block it. (That package probably had the same bugs as the current package, but this escaped notice because we only started running the testsuite with 0.36-1.) Please remove that build from unstable. There are four reverse dependencies of this package: - monotone-server is useless (and uninstallable) without monotone, but it is an arch:all package and will continue to be useful on other architectures. - monotone-viz has reduced functionality without monotone, but can be installed and used without it. - tailor and qct are high-level tools for working with any number of different VCSs. The non-presence of monotone on alpha will not render them uninstallable or unusable. Thank you, zw -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
