Package: motion
Version: 3.2.3-2.1

I have an old computer with Cirix CPU, detected as 486 by the current 
debian kernel (Etch, stable). I have just installed motion (binary, 
using apt, version 3.2.3-2.1). It crashes with "Illegal instruction" 
error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ motion -n -ddd
Illegal instruction
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ motion -n
Illegal instruction
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ motion
Illegal instruction

I believe, it may be because of some CPU instructions not supported by 
my CPU. In my opinion, there shall be perhaps a special version of 
motion package for 486 CPUs. Or maybe the same package shall include two 
sub-binaries - one for 486 CPUs? Or maybe here are other ways to cope 
with it.

Note that I have just compiled motion from sources and I get no such 
error.

I am using the Debian kernel for my CPU: 2.6.18-6-486 and libc6 version 
2.3.6.ds1-13etch7.

Regards,
JJ
