package: prctl
severity: serious
version: 1.6-1
Hi,
The buildd 'Packages-arch-specific' configuration has this line for prct:
%prctl: hppa ia64 alpha powerpc # ANAIS
based on syscall availability
https://buildd.debian.org/quinn-diff/sid/Packages-arch-specific
As can be seen from the buildd page, this means that it will never be built
for any release architecture:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=prctl
However, prctl has a binary on am64. Either the Packages-arch-specific is
wrong, or the package is unusable there and should be removed.
If it doens't have a working binary on any release architecture, it shouldn't
be in a release.
Thanks,
Ivo
