As a powerpc buildd admin but not a porter, I'd be happy to do so. But: - It's only useful to talk to a porter if the bug clearly is a porting issue, rather than a bug in the package. This isn't always easy to make out from the build log. - I have no clue who the powerpc porters are, if there are any. I can mail to the debian-powerpc mailinglist of course, but that seems to be mostly a powerpc user support list these days. -- The biometric identification system at the gates of the CIA headquarters works because there's a guard with a large gun making sure no one is trying to fool the system. http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/01/biometrics.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
