Good, thanks for the pointer. Will make sure that the free stuff stays in main. Best, Roland --- http://www.q-leap.com / http://qlustar.com --- HPC / Storage / Cloud Linux Cluster OS ---

Packages with free softeare depending from packages in non-free need to go to contrib. It would be great if those parts that do not need the non-free components could stay in main, thought.

I hope I will get around building the new version in time before the next freeze. The big advantage of the newer versions 2.x + is support for GPUs. To support that will be quite a lot of effort though. Given that we'll have to build against the non-free nvidia stuff for GPU support, will this require the package to move to non-free as well (at least the GPU variants)?

Hi folks, when I tried to fix this bug I realised that new upstream versions are out. I downloaded the latest one and imported it into Git[1]. Since I don't know the software I would like to ask you about your reasons you might have to stick to version 1.4. There are some patches to fix and may be some tests to do which I can't. So may be if I do not hear from you I'd probably only go with the restriction of architectures to amd64/i386 to fix #897239. Kind regards Andreas.
