Hi, I am about to upload a fresh new package -- CDE http://www.stanford.edu/~pgbovine/cde.html which is heavily based on strace (pretty much it is a code fork of strace to provide necessary functionality).
Upstream author maintains it for x86 architectures only and unfortunately has neither time, nor hardware (nor intention at the moment) to support others. I know that it would fail to build on powerpc, sparc and most probably would fail to build on anything else (but x86 linux) from the list of architectures strace supports. so the question -- should I even bother to upload attempting to build for that wide set of architectures or should immediately restrict to amd64 and i386? would porters be interested in contributing to patch it for those other architectures (upstream author says that it shouldn't be hard but might be trickier to test since his test battery is not yet made generally usable)?
