Hello world,

My `testing' distribution thing is back up on auric (rather than lully)
now. http://auric.debian.org/~ajt/ . It's running daily or so.

There's a list of uninstallable packages for both woody and potato
(sorted by source package) linked from there too. Stats for potato at
the moment are: (number of uninstallable binary packages by arch)

     * sparc:45
     * i386:10
     * m68k:45
     * alpha:64
     * powerpc:75

The ten i386 uninstallables are:

        cricket (not installable on any arch, librrds-perl is depended upon
                but only available in woody, not potato)

        libglide2-v3 (needs device3dfx-module, which is presumably built by
                device3dfx-source, but there aren't any existing packages
                that match the kernels we distribute. libglide2 is also
                an `optional' package that seems to depend on an `extra'
                package)

        gsnes9x (in main, which needs snes9x-x which is in non-free)

        pcmcia-modules-2.0.36 (which has already been removed, but the
                rsync pulse still seems to be happening so auric's out
                of date)

        scalapack-lam-test
        scalapack-mpich-test
        scalapack-pvm-test
                (all depend on atlas1, which isn't in potato, or even woody
                anymore)

        spamfilter
                (not installable on any arch, depends on spamdb, which
                isn't in potato or woody)

        tkhylafax (not installable on any arch, depends on hylafax-client,
                which isn't in potato)

        tkirc (not installable on any arch, depends on ircii, which isn't in
                potato or woody)

Cheers,
aj
