Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10~20070907
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source

Hi there,

I cannot build the current coreutils from experimental from source on
PowerPC, because of a failure in the seq test suite:

=== 8< ===
Making check in seq

The same sources build fine on i386.
