Package: openbios-ppc
Severity: normal
Hi Aurelien,
I've tried to rebuild openbios-ppc for Univention Corporate Server,
a Debian derived distribution based on Debian stable (currently Lenny, our next
release will be based on Squeeze).
We only build for i386 and amd64. openbios-ppc is declared as
"Architecture: all", but when trying to build the package on x86
is errors out:
(..)
dh_testdir
This package must be built on a PowerPC machine
(..)
As such, the Architecture: field should be limited to "powerpc".
Cheers,
Moritz

No, this package can only be built on powerpc, but should be arch:all,
as this package contains a firmware taht is needed for QEMU to be able
to get qemu-system-ppc working.
This is due to the fact that Debian doesn't allow binary blob in the
packages, and also doesn't allow cross-compiler in the archive, which
would also allow this package to be built on all architecture.
The same is true for openbios-sparc (can only be built on sparc), or
seabios (can only be built on i386 and amd64).
