This came up briefly on -policy some time ago as the result of #175074 and #175077, but without much in the way of resolution: http://lists.debian.org/debian-policy/2003/02/msg00046.html I'd interpreted that piece of policy to imply "shared libraries must not contain non-PIC code", and as a result, have some packages with a similar problem to yours sitting in limbo... if those x86-only non-PIC optimizations still satisfy the requirements, I'd like to know too! -- Nicholas Breen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
