Really? A 4.3.0 pre-release for experimental built just fine on ARM. Well, it's building now, we'll see what happens. And 223633 is a kernel-package issue... > And in any event, Josh is wrong, it doesn't need > hand-built, please leave it to be auto-built. Really? When I tried to install the build-depends (in my otherwise minimal chroot), it failed because the new arch-independent xlibs(-dev) depends on the split-out libX(-dev) packages, which don't exist yet. I had to downgrade to sarge, install, then re-upgrade, and of course xlibs(-dev) failed to upgrade. I don't see how the autobuilders are going to manage this, unless they can downgrade xlibs(-dev) too... Cheers, -- -Adam P.
