OTOH, even if breaking it for Sparc while fixing it for three other architectures could seem reasonable, we may be able to do better... if people with Sparc knowledge speak up. Having had a look to the packaging changes log, it seems weird to me 0.9-1 builds ok but 0.9-3 doesn't. Can someone confirm 0.9-1 at least works ok on sparc? - If it does not, I don't think this bug should prevent pushing 0.9-3 to Squeeze: this would fix the package behaviour for some people, and introduce no regression for others. - If it does, here is the plan I would favor: either Sparc porters help fixing this bug, or 0.9-3 shall be pushed to Squeeze for other architectures.
