pkg kde talk - Dec 2005 - qt-x11-free/arts build issues

Hello,

qt-x11-free and arts both failed on hppa recently.

Qt''s failure would appear to be due to this:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-hppa/2005/10/msg00072.html

Hopefully we won''t have to ask for this setting to be changed with
every
upload - is there some way of fixing this permanently?

arts is failing because it can''t find Qt, which is odd, given that it 
build-depends on Qt and has succeeded on other architectures. Perhaps it 
will benefit from being retried once the latest Qt has been built and 
installed.

Thanks for your help,
Christopher Martin

It is precisely that, a libm error that was supposedly fixed in 2.3.5-8
(but doesn''t seem to have been).

Yes.  Fix glibc.

Yep.  If there is a mix of arch-all and arch-any packages, things tend
to become uninstallable once the new arch-all package is uploaded, and
the old arch-all package is morgued.
