We ported it some time ago, but it seems it has regressed in the latest upload (probably problems with unaligned accesses or little endian assumptions, as before). I uploaded a new package with a pile of fixes for BE support. Let's see how it goes. -- mattia :wq! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

We ported it some time ago, but it seems it has regressed in the latest upload (probably problems with unaligned accesses or little endian assumptions, as before). yeah, dispite the fact that the patch applied, there were other changes that are causing a consistent segfault. I might try to take a look at fixing it, but not now. Anyway regarding bochs, it's not really a problem as iasl is only used when building architecture independent packages, thus the Build-Depends-Indep. I tried debugging it when the bug first appeared after I uploaded the package with not much success but now I'm definitely lacking the time to look at it. As an emergency fix, if it's not a big deal for bochs, disabling the failing architectures is an option. thanks -- mattia :wq! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi Can you please have a look at fixing the segfaults of iasl on non i386/amd64 or do you think it would be better to remove the support of iasl on non i386/amd64. If so, bochs is the only affected reverse dep of iasl if you would restrict iasl to i386/amd64.
