Sounds good to me -- libidn doesn't build on sparc due to a bug in gcj which was fixed for 4.6.x, and libidn is stuck in unstable. It would be great if this build could be re-tried with gcc 4.6.x. http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2011/06/msg00007.html /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
