Sorry, that's not true. According to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=767291#15 it builds on mips, but not on all porter machines. > Furthermore, there are further changes to blitz++ relative to > testing - namely those introduced in 0.10-2.

I confirm that the 0.10-2 changes need to be taken into consideration now as well. I admit I do not have any personal interest in blitz++. The only reason why I spent some time into it was that years ago somebody asked me for help in this package and now it seems to bit-rot while it has some users. If it creates extra trouble for you and me we can most probably go with the current version in testing and leave everything as is in unstable. > In regards to the actual changes from 0.10-2, I have not looked at > those.

I have pinged debian-mips@l.d.o twice about this problem and told them that I will ask for ROM on mips ... :-( Thanks for your work on the Debian release Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
