Package: gcl
Version: 2.6.12-45
Severity: serious
Justification: not installable
User: [email protected]
Usertags: rebootstrap
While conducing multiarch qa, I noticed that gcl fails to install on
mips64el:
| Preparing to unpack .../142-gcl_2.6.12-45_mips64el.deb ...
| Unpacking gcl (2.6.12-45) ...

gcl exited with exit code 1.
A dpkg-deb -c on the binary package yields:

Something is seriously broken about the binary package (and possibly the
buildd that was used to build it).
This is not the first time that some mips* box produces broken binary
packages. mips porters X-Debbugs-Cced. Most likely binNMUing "fixes"
this problem, but we should really figure out why this is happening.

The binNMU has been built, I am therefore closing the bug.
