Bug#327780: current gcc-4.0 is utterly useless on m68k
reassign 327780 m68k thanks that's unreproducible on crest/sid, although I can reproduce it on another machine with the very same versions of gcc-4.0 and libc6. So why not file it for libc6? The point of reassigning the report to an unknown package is to ask, if it's time to drop m68k from the release architectures or just set the severity of all m68k reports to wishlist. There's currently nobody interested in forwarding m68k related bug reports upstream and testing m68k compiler versions. There are at least six more unhandled m68k reports. My email from July (http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/07/msg00069.html) is left unanswered, so I have to assume, that m68k isn't supported anymore and will start to downgrade all m68k related reports to a non-RC severity.

Uhm? Unanswered? I thought Wouter and Adam step up to fill the gap? -- Ciao...//Fon: 0381-2744150 Ingo \X/ SIP: [EMAIL PROTECTED] gpg pubkey: http://www.juergensmann.de/ij/public_key.asc signature.asc Description: Digital signature
