correct. We will probably drop this two checks, IA64 isn't alive for a longer time and Alpha is broken since 31.4.0 and wont refited without help. > It does not work for me either.

I haven't looked at this issue in detail. We don't call anythere fakeroot $foo so I assume this is a bug in debhelper. > Additionally: debian/rules binary does not restart the build from scratch > after > a failure.

This is also been fixed by Christoph in http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mozilla/icedove.git/commit/?id=54ed88d1a5c27fa08cbb18ebc89408812ef60377 Regards Carsten
