Package: pivy
Version: 0.6.4-1
Severity: serious

pivy cannot be built on mips/mipsel because of a depedency on pyside2 which is 
not built on mips/mipsel pyside2 is not being built on those architectures due 
to a dependency on patchelf. patchelf is not currently building on mips* due to 
a testsuite failure.

mips64el also looks like it will become a problem going forward as patchelf is 
not currently available there (but was at the time pyside2 was last built).

Possible solutions (in roughly descending order of preference):

1. Fix the patchelf testsuite failures.
2. Break the dependency chain (only possible if the functionality in question 
is optional, I have not researched that).
3. Request removal of the mips* binaries for pivy and reverse dependencies of 
pivy (if-any).
