Perl packages must now depend on `perlapi-$Config{debian_abi}', falling back on `$Config{version}' if `$Config{debian_abi}' is not set. Might be relevant to point out that dh_perl and ${perl:Depends} should take care of this, so for most it shouldn't be an issue. -- /Carl Fürstenberg azat...@gmail.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

It would be lovely to have that bug fixed, but it's not new nor is it directly related to arch wildcards. It's affected the openafs package for years, which explicitly lists out the architectures it supports. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
