I assume this is now fixed as per your most recent message in this thread? If yes, just ping me to reupload libpdb-redo whenever you are ready. > And ppc64el is still failing in libclipper/libccp4 reading MTZ files. > The error indicates that the endianness is interpreted incorrectly.

For debugging/building packages on other architectures, Debian has a PorterBox service [1], but I admit I do not know much about that. Even not being a DD you could ask for guest account.
