7.3.33+dfsg-1 failed the same way a year ago: https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=swi-prolog&arch=mips I would not rule out that this might be an old bug causing random build failures, that either just happened twice in the row or became more likely due to some change somewhere. > Note that the 7.6.1-2 > version builds successfully on mipsel and mips64el (little-endian), but > fails on mips (big-endian). > The similar problem occures on powerpc [1][2], which also works in > big-endian mode: >... Same randomness on powerpcspe, and both have it already with 7.6.1+dfsg-1: https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=swi-prolog&arch=powerpc https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=swi-prolog&arch=powerpcspe cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
