Hi,
my question why the sparc port for openmotif vanished was more or less ignored
and thus I guessed there is no real reason except that nobody cares. So I tried
my best to fix this.
1. Failed to compile on vore.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dchroot unstable
(unstable)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-get source libmotif-dev
--> I got only version 2.2.3-1.1 despite the latest version
is 2.2.3-1.2
--> wget *.dsc and *.diff.gz of 2.2.3-1.2
(unstable)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg-source -x openmotif_2.2.3-1.2.dsc
(unstable)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd openmotif-2.2.3/
(unstable)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot [EMAIL
PROTECTED]
(unstable)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/openmotif-2.2.3$ dpkg-buildpackage
-rfakeroot [EMAIL PROTECTED]
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is openmotif
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 2.2.3-1.2
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Frank Lichtenheld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture sparc
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: byacc
dpkg-buildpackage: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.
dpkg-buildpackage: (Use -d flag to override.)
According to my (limited) knowledge I would now have to ask administrators
to install byacc on vore. So I tried another approach.
2. Try pbuilder on my Sparc machine
--> This resulted in #329747 against pbuilder
Sorry for crossposting. Any hint which would be the more appropriate list
for this boring issue would be welcome. Please CC me if you are going to post
to debian-sparc only (which would be fine for me).
Kind regards
Andreas.
For the record I quote my initial mail from three weeks ago to debian-devel:

I just noticed that libmotif3 vanished for Sparc architecture from the

I know that it was there formerly because I once got it without any extra
lines in my sources.list file. Now the Sparc port can be found at
http://ftp.unixdev.net/pub/debian-udev/pool/non-free/o/openmotif/
but I wonder what might be the reason to drop this single archive from the
non-free mirrors?
