[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#601287: Bug#601287: gmp: [PATCH] please add forgotten m68k support

[Steve M. Robbins]

Hi Thorsten,

Thanks for the patch.  What I've done is apply it to the 
"experimental" branch, which currently contains gmp 5.0.1.

As you likely know, Debian is in "deep freeze" for the next stable
release.  Since stable doesn't include m68k support, I wasn't planning
on uploading this to unstable.  Once squeeze is released, I plan to
upload gmp 5 into unstable, so your fix will show up then.

I'm not sure how this affects m68k users in the interim.  Is there
still an archive of the "stable" release somewhere?  I know there's
still an m68k auto-builder on debian-ports
(http://buildd.debian-ports.org/).  It seems to be only building
unstable.

Let me know if it builds successfully with the patch.  And if you try
the gmp 5 package from experimental, let me know if it builds.

Cheers,
