Newsgroups: linux.debian.bugs.dist
Package: mcvs
Version: 1.0.13-9

The clisp package has problems with FFI on some architectures which prevent
mcvs from building. The mcvs package maintainer is aware of these, but
unfortunately has little control over the feature set offered by the clisp
package. Build failures are expected for mcvs on these architectures, and
should not be filed as FTBFS. There is a wishlist bug filed against the
clisp package to request that the FFI module be made to work again on those
architectures, and when that can be done, mcvs will build properly on those
architectures again.

In the interest of being able to update mcvs to testing again, older
architectures' mcvs packages will be removed from the pool so that newer,
more actively-maintained ones (such as AMD64) can progress to testing.
