FTBFS on a single architecture is generally only RC if it's a regression, and not if that architecture has never been built successfully. This looks like the root cause, which wil not be easy to fix: > virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory It might be possible to apply some tricks to make the build take less memory. I see Olek Wojnar has made a couple of attempts at this in experimental, but unfortunately without success so far. webkit2gtk is an example of another package that hits memory limits during build. It currently uses LDFLAGS += -Wl,--no-keep-memory on 32-bit architectures (a time/space trade-off), and $(CFLAGS:-g=-g1) to reduce the size and coverage of its detached debug symbols. smcv
