This week I fixed two packages and also worked on several other.

hyperic-sigar
There is some platform-dependent code in this package with several cases. The 
platform detection didn't take MIPS into account and the wrong #ifdef branch of 
the code was executing. This branch contained macros unsupported on MIPS. I 
modified one of the headers so that MIPS is detected properly and the package 
now builds fine. The package should also build on MIPSel now.

This package invokes some system calls directly by their number. However the 
numbers were not defined for MIPS and as a result the build failed with 
undefined macro error. I added the required macro definitions for MIPS and now 
the package builds. The patch I created should also fix the MIPSel build.

The package ergo built on my system without any changes so I believe it just 
builds too slowly for the automated debian build system.

I am also working on the packages ola, libcutl and sagan, but so far I have not 
been able to fix any of them.
