[Pkg-bitcoin-devel] Bug#767719: cgminer: failed to connect to minergate service

[Shawn L. Djernes]

Package: cgminer
Version: 4.7.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Trying to start the program normally using normal paramaters.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Tried to specify the USB device with --usb BET:1 DID NOT WORK.

I was able to fix the package by pulling the source package and editing the 
debian/rules file to remove --enable-sp10 and --enable-sp30. That fixed this
problem.  This left others.

After reading the ReadMe from the upstream again, I found that their are 
modules that should not be built on anything but special systems. I
removed all those --enable options from debian/rules and it seems to be
stable.
