Lucas is right that forcing it into testing without hppa is one
possibility that the release team has.

However, I am not arbitrarily deciding not to use it and ask you to go
out of your way instead to get it built on hppa.

The reason is that if libdb-ruby/0.6.5-1 does not get build on hppa one
way or another, it will be literally impossible to drop libdb4.[234]-ruby
from Lenny, which I believe was your initial goal...

Hope this helps to clear things up a bit.
