I uploaded 2.1.69-1 to unstable. All arches catched up, besides arm.
As a matter of fact, the octave2.1 package has never gone below position
130 in the arm buildd queue since more than two weeks. I suspect that
the arm buildd machines are simply overloaded and cannot keep up with the
increasing demand from incoming. This is a blocking issue for the sarge
freeze. Is the arm buildd crew doing something to fix this problem?
