Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

        Hello, dear FTP maintainers.  Currently, k3d is blocked for migrating 
to 
testing because three architectures (hppa and the kfreebsd*) are blocking its 
way.  I need them removed:

out of date on hppa: k3d, k3d-dev (from 0.6.7.0-2.6)
out of date on kfreebsd-amd64: k3d, k3d-dev (from 0.6.7.0-2.6)
out of date on kfreebsd-i386: k3d, k3d-dev (from 0.6.7.0-2.6)

        K3D is used in the desktop as a modeler similar to Maya or Houdini, so 
it's completely useless that we ship the version in testing right now.

    Apart from a FTBFS with gcc-4.5 (#565008) and another known problem with 
missing Breaks (#588604) it also won't build on HPPA (#588923, this might be 
fixable adding another flag to the compiler), and it doesn't build on 
kfreebsd-* and hurd-* because of the missing package libinotify-dev.

        I prefer working in hppa and the kfreebsd problems *after* we are sure 
we 
will have the right version for shipping in the next stable version.

        Best regards,


                Ender.
