Dear ftpmaster, Dear arm porters, The newer revision of bali-phy is giving difficulties[1,2,3] on arm 32-bit architectures. Since the package targets scientific applications, I'm not confident that it has a heavy user base on such architecture and would request a removal of bali-phy from armel and armhf. Of course, if porters have time and resources to help Benjamin, in carbon copy, to debug and fix the problem, that is for the better. :) [1]: https://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2025/03/msg00005.html [2]: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=bali-phy [3]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1101873 Note that if bali-phy gets fixed after removal, then it will still be possible for the package to reintegrate the 32-bit arm distribution. But for the moment, I see the upcoming trixie freeze and autoremoval of the package is at the corner, hence my personnal preference for a removal. I'm especially concerned if debugging the arm 32-bit build failure gets involved and gets in the way of other pressing porting issues. Whatever the outcome, Thank you for your help on the matter! Have a nice day, :) -- .''`.
