Package: clanbomber
Version: 1.05cdbs-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

On powerpc and sparc architectures where I have tried it, clanbomber
takes 99% of CPU and does not display anything but a blackscreen (the
X window is frozen and not refreshed).

It is impossible to shutdown and needs to be killed.

It might be related to clanlib issues on big-endian architectures. See
also #241931.

With respect to the severity of the bug, I read (in reportbug) the
following description: 

1 renders package unusable    renders the package unusable, or mostly so, on
                              all or nearly all possible systems on which it
                              could be installed (i.e., not a hardware-specific
                              bug); or renders package uninstallable or
                              unremovable without special effort

and chose it as it is not specific to one single hardware but at least
two architectures. If I am wrong in understanding the severity
description, feel free to downgrade the severity (and fix the
reportbug English description... or maybe fix my English
understanding).   :)

An easy solution would be to disable building of clanbomber on powerpc
and sparc architectures (I wonder if it has ever worked).

Thanks,
Frédéric
