Judging from what I gather from porters, making packages Architecture: i386 isn't generally a great idea. From the point of view of the release, getting it to build cleanly on all architectures where it's built before is sufficient; if new architectures can be added later, so much the better. I'd leave it as Architecture: any and let porters or users of other architectures file bugs if they experience problems. > My latest patch does fix the RC bugs (not using -fPIC on hppa) but I > have not yet investigated the other portability issues. Great! Please take it off our hands. :) Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
