[Pkg-kde-extras] kvirc REMOVED from testing

2011-05-14 Thread Debian testing watch 
FYI: The status of the kvirc source package
in Debian's testing distribution has changed.

  Previous version: 4:4.1.1~svn5639-1
  Current version:  (not in testing)
  Hint: http://release.debian.org/britney/hints/jcristau
# 20110507; done 20110514
# ftbfs on s390

The script that generates this mail tries to extract removal
reasons from comments in the britney hint files. Those comments
were not originally meant to be machine readable, so if the
reason for removing your package seems to be nonsense, it is
probably the reporting script that got confused. Please check the
actual hints file before you complain about meaningless removals.

 I don't understand this removal: my last info was, that the version in Testing
 was built on all arches correctly. Now, the current version triggered some 
 crash
 in dpkg (though I'm not sure dpkg is to blame here*), AFAICT there is nothing
 we, the KVIrc maintainers, can do to fix this.
 Thus I'd like to hear the reasoning behind this removal.
 
 * [0] shows a memory corruption on the buildd, triggered during a 
 dpgk-shlibdeps
 run. So this might be some temporary issue on the buildd, some bug in eglibc 
 or
 something dpkg. Anyway: I don't see how this warrants the removal of KVIrc.
 
kvirc depends on libperl.

Cheers,
Julien
