Comment (by drkirkby):

 As a matter of interest, what was the reason for not fixing it? I thought
 optional packages were supposed to build on all supported machines. So the
 only logical things to me were to either

 1) Fix it
 2) Make it experimental and not optional.

 It this bug report a duplicate, as the resolution is set to?

 I appreciate the fact this has remained like this for 3 years probably
 means nobody cares too much, but the concept of closing a ticket without
 fixing an issue seems wrong to me.
