AFAIK are the porters the building machines. If the building fails it is a pitty. Take a closer look to see what is wrong and try to fix it. Please don't restrict your sources to be build on other platforms. It is IMO a backdoor to hide (build)problems. Accept that there are other architectures and support them as good as possible. Discriminating is not the way to go. Geert St
