Hi Adam,

I can add ppc64el, but someone else will need to compile it even on powerpc - my toolchain is in a truly sorry state.

I'll look into the epoch thing - do I need to conflict on powerpc-ibm-utils as well?

Thanks for pointing out that powerpc-ibm-utils has already been packaged. I'll try to keep that in mind for the next odd wishlist request in a few year's time.

Cheers,

   Michael

Package: powerpc-utils
Severity: normal

It would be lovely if you added ppc64el to the arch list for powerpc-utils
to enable building on that new port (already in Ubuntu, and likely to show
up in debian-ports at some point in the not-too-distant future).

Also, while this is a bit of a strange request, I'd love it if you could
add an epoch to the version to help your downstreams (namely us, *sigh*)
skip over a versioning snafu where someone accidentally "upgraded" powerpc-
utils to powerpc-ibm-utils and I had to revert it.

... Adam
