In response to the mail by Andre Lehovich dated 24 January 2005 at 17:36: | I just successfully compiled GSL 1.6-1 on my G4 (Sarge | environment). Since I didn't have to patch anything, I | think that Dirk's suspicion is correct, i.e. the problem is | a configuration bug on the buildd server. | | One potential clue are the failed tests hidden in the middle | of the buildd log [1]. (Search for "FAIL: test"). I have | no idea what is causing that; the same tests passed on my | machine. | | [1] http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=gsl&ver=1.6-1&arch=powerpc&stamp=1104990349&file=log&as=raw | | The compile log looks uninteresting, but I can forward it if | someone thinks it would be useful.
And as I said before, gsl had never ever failed on this arch before. I truly believe this to be a spurious issue on the host, and not a FTBFS. So could someone with a powerpc buildd *please* reschedule a build?
