Yes, I knew about this. I asked for help here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-alpha/2010/03/msg00015.html but had no luck.

Good to know. Simple question: Is this fixed in 1.4.15? (which I have just realized that it exist). Questions for Cyril: What's the status of alpha in Debian? Will there be a Debian 6.0 for alpha, to be released some time after the usual release of the stable architectures? (In such case it seems it would be "highly desirable" to fix this in squeeze, if we can, so that package version are in sync). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
