Uh, no. Please do not upload untested cross-compiled code. Untested stuff is the most likely to break and cross compilation is often dodgy. There are maintainers for the non-i386 architectures who will compile all packages, which can be compiled, sooner or later. If you want to help us, a) ensure your package builds from a fresh source tree, and b) fix the bugs we file about packages which won't build from source[2]. People who don't own and can't access non-i386 machines producing non-i386 debs are in general, going to cause trouble[1], not help. Even on the slowest architectures, it's the broken packages holding us back, not the number of compilable packages. [1] There are of course, some exceptions to this, e.g. non-free pre-compiled binaries. [2] There was until recently still #3xxx era bugs filed by previous m68k maintainers about source packages being unbuildable from source. I think Dirk may have fixed the last with his upload of autopgp, I can't check right now though (nameserver problems). -- James -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
