 Hi

 Your package is not installable as it depends on libpetsc2.3.0 which is
 not available anymore. You might want to update the dependency to
 libpetsc2.3.1.
 
 Thank you.  I've known about this for some time, but can't seem to get
 illuminator into testing because PETSc doesn't build on HPPA.  Which is
 odd, because PETSc is in testing without the HPPA build...

That was probably at the time hppa was temporary by the testing
transition tool not regarded as a release architecture...

 I'll try to clear up the PETSc issue, then re-upload illuminator.

Not sure it that's a good idea (the waiting to upload) as it makes
illuminator uninstallable on all arches in unstable ATM...

Cheers

Luk

No.  This is the standard requirement that a package not have any *out of
date* binaries for any architecture.  Not being built for an architecture is
acceptable and just means the package hasn't been ported to the arch yet,
but having out-of-date binaries implies that there has been a regression on
an architecture where this package is supported.  Since in this case the
regression is caused by an unavailable build dependency, the proper course
of action is to ask the ftpmasters for removal of the hppa binaries.  This
is the maintainer's responsibility.

Some notes:

* this bug (#376890) is not architecture specific.
* petsc had binaries on hppa, though not anymore

If I'm right illuminator will only be able to transition to testing when
both this bug is fixed and the hppa issue is fixed (either by having
working binaries for petsc on hppa or by removing the previous hppa
illuminator binaries)...

Cheers

Luk
