Not intentional but, the way I understand it, that won't hurt since the main build-dependency, gnat-4.4, is not available there and dak handles that situation gracefully. If I am mistaken, please add "!hurd-i386" to all packages. >> mips is disabled for some packages due to http://bugs.debian.org/566234. > > I would like to wait with that part, since this looks like something > that should be easy to solve? Not if I can't get access to a mips machine of if no mips porter is interested enough to help[1]. [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-mips/2010/01/msg00007.html Only one response which is from someone who would also like to help, but can't for lack of hardware. qemu is so slow it is not an option (gnat-4.4 is a *big* package). >> This update should allow all remaining Ada packages to transition >> into testing, well in time for the freeze of Squeeze. > > This will not change anything for you.

All the packages I speak of are already built on all architectures except the ones I specifically mentioned in my patch (alpha for all, mips for a few). The update excuses say that gnat-gps is blocked from testing only because it has become unavailable on mips; since this is intentional, I think the updates I asked on Packages-arch-specific would (indirectly, perhaps) allow it to transition to testing along with all its dependencies. The same will hold for adacontrol in another 5 days. -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
