Package: z88dk
Version: 1.6.ds1-3
Severity: serious

The latest version of this package incorrectly identifies s390 as a 64-bit
architecture:

[...]
rm -f debian/build-stamp debian/build-arch-stamp debian/build-indep-stamp
case "$DEB_BUILD_ARCH" in
   s390|alpha|amd64|ia64|ppc64)
        echo "64bit architecture not supported by upstream."
        exit 1
        ;;
esac
64bit architecture not supported by upstream.
[...]

s390 is not a 64-bit architecture.  This is a gratuitous regression in
architecture support; that makes this a release critical bug, because
packages must be supported on as many architectures as is reasonably
possible.

The changelog also claims

  * Added missing arm architecture

But in fact arm is missing from the architecture list in debian/control, so
z88dk FTBFS on this architecture as well:

[...]
yada patch "debian/patches/*.diff"
touch debian/build-stamp
 /usr/bin/fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch
make: Nothing to be done for `binary-arch'.
[...]
