Hi Andreas, the main problem was that t-coffee hangs forever on the armel architecture. Whether the build completed or not just reflected whether testing the binary was part of the build or not. In 2012, I disabled this test, but unfortunately the commit message (revision 9694) does not explain well why I did this. Probably because the way the test was implemented was wasting ARM buildd time. As of today, we do not know if the binary package that we distribute on armel really works or not. I think that this bug reflects well the situation. Maybe the simplest way to close it would be to restrict the build to the amd64 architecture ?
