The main problem is that on the mips and mipsel architectures the packages compile but their unit tests fail - timeout on mips, and segfault on mipsel. The previous packaged version still didn't come with unit tests. I informed the upstream author, but they probably more concentrate on common platforms. I think, for practical reasons, one would not use sextractor on a MIPS machine yet, because it needs some processing power, so removing these architectures until a fix is available would be a better alternative thant using of a 6-year-old, buggy version (which never passed this kind of unit-test). How should I proceed here? Best Ole -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
