Sorry, I thought that with the email sent by -done it was enough to get you notified -- that's what most people do it in the packages that I have close contact with. >> (bug triaging on the fly while looking at other things, sorry if not >> welcome...) >> >> 2013-09-15 12:19 Bill Allombert: >> >Package: libgmp-dev >> >Version: 2:5.1.2+dfsg-2 >> >Severity: wishlist >> > >> >Hello Steve, >> > >> >Please reinstate lib64gmp-dev on powerpc until ppc64 is an official Debian >> >distribution.

(the following it's an explanation of my reasoning why I closed it, I don't have any stakes in this). I thought that the issue was "solved" in a way because 2:6.0.0+dfsg-4 doesn't provide any package named lib64gmp-dev or lib32gmp-dev (removed in 2:5.1.2+dfsg-3), neither for this architecture nor for any others, and because libgmp-dev has been built successfully in recent versions of the package for ppc64. At the time you submitted another bug #714998 against the package because "You can easily check on <http://packages.debian.org/sid/libgmp-dev> that there is no libgmp-dev packages for ppc64". There was, but due to a bug in the code generating the website, it didn't appear there (according to comments in that report). Since libgmp-dev in ppc64 is it's been working for years, I expected that the problem was indeed solved for you, and that you would be able to use ppc64's libgmp-dev for the speed gains, and that this bug just laid forgotten in the BTS. Sorry for all the mess. Cheers. -- Manuel A.
