[UNMETDEPS] imaze has unmet dependencies

[Andrew Mitchell]

 A run of
 .
  LC_ALL=C apt-cache -i unmet | grep ^Package | cut -d' ' -f2 | grep
  -v dbgsym | sort -u | xargs apt-cache showsrc | grep ^Directory |
  sed 's/Package\:\ //g' | grep verse | cut -d'/' -f4
 indicates that the source package imaze has binary packages that are not
 installable (on AMD64) at the moment.
 .
 Please have a look and make sure it's installable again.

Confirmed in Gutsy, for amd64 only:
imaze-sounds (= 1.4-12build1): FAILED
The following constraints cannot be satisfied:
  imaze-sounds (= 1.4-12build1) depends on imaze {NOT AVAILABLE}

Why doesn't this package build on amd64?
imaze (1.4-12build1) feisty; urgency=low

  * No change rebuild against a now amd64-enabled xview.

I guess imaze doesn't get build on amd64 because it's listed as not to be build on amd64 in Packages-arch-specific.

[Sense Egbert Hofstede (sense)]

But shouldn't there be something that prevent all architecture independent packaged from coming into the package list of a not supported architecture? The way it is now is quite confusing for some users.

This seems to build fine for amd64:
https://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/ppa
https://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/ppa/+build/860601

Note: 1.4-12build2 is actually 1.4-12build1, just testing in my PPA

[Savvas Radevic (medigeek)]

I've subscribed universe sponsors to enable amd64 for jaunty

[Luca Falavigna (dktrkranz)]

This won't build for amd64, imaze is still blacklisted in P-A-S for 64bit architectures.

https://buildd.debian.org/quinn-diff/Packages-arch-specific:
imaze-xview: !ia64 !amd64
%imaze: !ia64 !amd64

Have you tried amd64 version of imaze? If so, could you please describe your tests?
I'm unsubscribing u-u-s queue for now because this bug still requires some interaction with Debian.

[Savvas Radevic (medigeek)]

I've built it for amd64 as you can see and the game has run normally, but it needs TCP/IP from what I've understood, the default server doesn't work anymore.

[Sense Egbert Hofstede (sense)]

Setting the status to Triaged for Ubuntu and letting know that this is still an issue on Karmic. The package 'imaze-sounds' is shown in the index of amd64 repositories, but is of course not installable.

[Marco Rodrigues (gothicx)]

This package was removed from Debian. I'm closing the bug report.

Thank you.
