Package: liblapack3gf
Version: 3.1.1-0.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The following debconf note appears on installation on an ia64 (itanium) 
system. 

> One or more critical lapack library errors were discovered when this
>  package was built.  As of the time of this writing, all known such
>  errors are due to compiler and/or ld.so errors on the affected
>  architectures.  The lapack libraries in this set of packages then,
>  while practically useless for serious numerical research, are
>  provided here nonetheless to facilitate smooth upgrades of lapack
>  into Debian as a whole.


If we know that the package is buggy and will produce wrong results, 
surely it shouldn't be shipped on that architecture.
