reopen 400066 thanks > - restrict building to just i386, amd64 (Closes: #400066)
This is not an acceptable solution at all. There is nothing x86-specific about this package, and even up to *0.5.1-1*, the package was building successfully on alpha until you changed the architecture list. Upstream version 0.4.5 of lcdproc was portable to all architectures. That 0.5.1 is not is a regression, and it's not ok to "close" the issue by declaring that only i386 and amd64 will be supported. It is the release policy that packages must be supported on all architectures where it is "reasonable to do so", and it is most definitely reasonable to support architectures where the package was building fine before. The only architecture that should be dropped from the supported list for this package is s390, because s390 does not support serial, parallel, and USB devices; but all other archs must be supported. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
