Please do assume this. > What about uploading a new Kaffe package with "Architecture: i386 > powerpc"? Architecture: has little effect; you'd also need to get the ftpmasters to remove outdated binaries. If the latter is done then it doesn't matter whether you change Architecture: or not. You'll need to have good justification, though. What do the kaffe developers need to know about the build failures in question? If we knew that, then perhaps a Debian developer with relatively little specific experience of Java could gather the necessary information from a test build. > Objections? You may well find that not as many packages move to testing as you might hope, because they are built for architectures for which kaffe is not under your proposal. > Better suggestions? Fix the build problems. :) Hey, it built on those architectures in the past, didn't it? -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
