** Summary changed:

- [UNMETDEPS] Uninstallable on AMD64
+ Please remove stale AMD64 supercollider binaries.

** Description changed:

+ Please delete all AMD64 supercollider binaries from all supported
+ releases of Ubuntu.  This binary has not been built from the source (by
+ direction from debian/control) since at least the Hoary Hedgehog
+ version.
+ 
  Version 040926-2 depends on libjack0.80 (obsolete) and libstdc++5
  (deprecated).  Version 20051211-1build1 FTBFS for AMD64 (pointer casts
  to uint32).  Debian bug #276212 has a number of details, but the short
  answer seems to be removing supercollider from 64-bit architectures.
  There have been a number of interim releases as well, none of which
  appear to have survived the autobuilders.
  
  Please drop this package from the AMD64 distribution (or fix the code
  :)) before release.

+ Although patches to the code appear below, there is a design decision to
+ use a long int as two encoded 32 bit values, which breaks on all 64-bit
+ architectures.
+ 
+ This bug also affects ia64, or any other 64-bit port.
