Bug#657128: RM: sextractor [mips mipsel armhf s390x] -- RoM; ANAIS

2012-01-24 Thread Ole Streicher
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

The current version in testing originates from a version that is
outdated since five years and has a number of bugs.

I recently adopted this package and brought it up to the recent debian
policy and upstream version. The new upstream version has some
requirements (libatlas-dev) that are still not met on armhf and s390x,
and fails to build on mips and mipsel, due to the inclusion of unit
tests in the new version. MIPS machines never were supported upstream.

Thanks

Ole

You do know, that the buildds will try to build your package anyway, do
you?  And did you take a look at the build logs?  MIPS build failed
after not receiving any output for five minutes.  mips isn't the
fastest arch on earth, so that problem is probably solvable.

Best Regards,

I know, but on mipsel a segfault occurred. If I find some time and a
MIPS machine for debugging, I will look into it.
