Hi,

Thanks for taking care of this package.  :)

 and I've
 uploaded a new version (2.0.0-1). This version doesn't build newlib-spu
 anymore. It arrived on the archive a few days ago, should I request the 
 removal
 of the old packages for close this bug?

If they have no more rdeps in sid, then yes.

 I just read[0] that rene should take over about it. But newlib orig 1.18
 still there :/ and the cruft-report doesn't show results about newlib. I don't
 understand what happens, it's the first time that I have to deal with 
 something
 like this. If someone can point me what is the correct way that I should
 proceed I'll be very grateful.

I believe filing the bug will be correct in this case. :)

 Package: gcc-defaults,newlib
 Severity: important

 Dear maintainers of gcc-defaults and newlib,

 I noticed that gcc-defaults have removed the gnu-spu package in sid,
 but newlib still build-depends on it.  Since there was no bug against
 either package, I am assuming no one has noticed this so far.  As it
 is, this is one (of several) things blocking gcc-defaults migration to
 testing.

 This bug can be fixed either by re-introducing gcc-spu (possibly as a
 transitional package, if gcc-spu is no longer needed) or by newlib no
 longer Build-Depending on gcc-spu (since it is the last package using
 it).  I will leave it to you to decide how this will be solved; please
 reassign this bug to the proper package.
 
 I don't maintain the spu cross toolchain anymore, as previously written to the
 gcc and powerpc ML. So newlib maybe shouldn't build the spu packages anymore.

Hi all,

This is currently blocking gcc-defaults from migrating to testing (and
by extension a lot of other packages that is currently waiting for
gcc-defaults), so I am bumping the severity to RC.

 I guess this means users will also need to build newlib (in addition to
 the gnu-spu) if they want to do spu programming for cell.

yes.

 Matthias, please let us know in general what a user needs to do for
 this.

well, the spu cross toolchain needs packaging from a separate source package,
like done for the mingw64 packages.  I suppose newlib needs an update too,
Arthur Loiret is MIA, so the package maybe should be orphaned or taken over as 
well.
