Neither libcv-dev nor libcv1 depends on libraw1394 on my sid system. opencv _build-depends_ on it, but does not export the definition any further, so this looks suspicious.

It is built on all architectures, but half of them (hppa, mips, powerpc, s390 and sparc) are big-endian. > If temporary unavaliable build-deps are no reason for an exclusion, what > should I do for arm? Just leave it not being able to build until > frei0r's avaliable for arm? arm is no valid Debian architecture anymore.
