Are you sure the package is really shipped on archs that do not include the interpreter that the _binary_ package depends on, even though _source_ package does not? As also commented in the related bug#725363, I believe it is filtered off by the transition rule for testing, and therefore only is "noisy" in unstable. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
