Hi. Packages libeditline-java and libreadline-java won't build on ia64/m68k which AFAICT have no java complier at all in main. I can't make them architecture: all since they contain compiled JNI modules.
Thus the build-depends can't be satisfied on these architectures. Does this mean I need an architecture: string in my own control file? (I ask because I recall never having to do this in the days when KDE would not build for alpha). It would actually be a trivial matter to make libeditline-java/etc build on ia64/m68k, but this would either require including a precompiled jar in the sources which I am loathe to do, or splitting into two packages, one with the .jar that is architecture: all and one with the JNI module which is architecture: any, meaning that other architectures don't even need a java compiler. But that also seems a little heavy-handed. Anyway, I'd like thoughts/suggestions, because otherwise these packages will never make it into testing, which means jython will never make it into testing (which is what concerns me more).
