You can also get a list of packages with unsatisfiable build-dependencies from dose [1]. We currently have: - 67+29 source packages in testing with unsatisfiable build dependencies in main/testing/amd64 - 65+26 source packages in testing for which the build-dependencies are not satisfiable in main/testing on any architecture. -Ralf.
