Package: regex Version: 0.12-10 Severity: Important I tried to recompile regex for m68k, but it failed with:

Don't know if this happens because the arch != i386 or because the build daemons don't execute the binary-indep target (which is unnecessary). Since this is a "cannot build from source" type bug, it is to be considered important. (See Debian developer's reference.)
