[Pkg-exppsy-maintainers] Bug#559085: Account on HPPA machine needed (was: Bug#559085: Max number of threads on HPPA)

[Michael Hanke]

Hi,

I was asked to provide a ptrace of a failing unittest to investigate a
potential bug on the HPPA architecture (see quote below). However, I
have no access to an HPPA machine, nor am I a DD. Is there any way I can
get access to such a machine, to install build-deps of the respective
package, build it and log the desired ptrace?


Thanks in advance,

Michael
