Hi, http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/testing_outdate.txt has bothered me since I discovered it a few times. It shows m68k has 22 out of date with mipsel and hppa at 6. Most are at 0 or 1. Please consider building/uploading clustalw 1.83-1.2 What's going on with etch-secure? See http://etch-se

Hi, Please build vlc 0.8.6-svn20061012.debian-4 that was uploaded via testing-proposed-updates (tpu). I don't see where information about who's building tpu. This one package should fix a few of the uninstallable packages listed at http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/testing_probs.html I plan to

I haven't been able to look at the m68k-build list archives as they seem to be broken. These questions may already be explained. In about 10 days (when openldap2 goes into testing) there will likely be people complaining that libbonoboui won't compile on the m68k arch [1] and is thus holding back

What's happening with the m68k port? - debian-68k [1] has two posts so far this month. - debian-devel-m68k-changes [2] doesn't seem to have had any posts since March 18th this year (no new m68k packages?). - debian-m68k-changes [3] just seems to collect spam. - [EMAIL PROTECTED] [4] doesn't seem
