Fix os.h and/or Makefile > | make[1]: *** [SCF.o] Error 1 Bonjour Cyril and Perl people, This is bug http://bugs.debian.org/544751, caused by libstaden-read-dev. On hppa, ia64, mips, mipsel, and s390, the failed builds were attemtped with a version of libstaden-read-dev where #544751 was not yet fixed (The ‘Last State Change’ date on https://buildd.debian.org/pkg.cgi?pkg=libbio-scf-perl is particulary misleading on that point). Pepole interested in using libbio-scf-perl on hppa, ia64, mips, mipsel, or s390 can perhaps contact the relevant porters and get the buildds to try to rebuild the package. Although I will not oppose attempts to increase the architecture coverage for libbio-scf-perl in Squeeze, I recommend against: it is not because a package builds that it works, and given that it is only recently that libstaden-read-dev was corrected, I suspect that the amount of testing is more than rudimentary on these architecture, where the demand for parsing Applied Biosystems chromatograms is low, or even not expected.
