There are build daemons for each architecture which build packages from source if no binaries are uploaded for them. All reasonably sane packages propagate to all architectures within a few days, and looking at http://voltaire.debian.org/buildlogs/zope (voltaire is the machine running the powerpc buildd) it seems zope is sane. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper) \ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer CS student, Free Software enthusiast \ XFree86 and DRI project member
