Sorry, I did work this out but then I seem to have confused myself. libunwind8-dev is available but not practically installable as gcc packages depend on libunwind7-dev (while ~everything depends on libunwind7). The last mention I see of this is: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.announce/1800/focus=67614 Matthias, whether or not ia64 should be a release architecture, it currently is and you must not block work on it. If ia64 will not be ignored for testing transitions then it looks like I have to remove the build-dependency from linux-tools - there's no way I can let the kernel wait for a full rebuild of ia64.
