Please remove the sysbench package from ppc64el only.

Sysbench requires luajit which is currently broken on that arch (see
#1011307). Replacing luajit with lua as suggested is not a viable
solution for sysbench, hence support for ppc64el was removed in a
recent upload.


Thanks!

Closing this request now that an alternative solution has presented
itself in the form of luajit2, cf. elbrus on #1011307 msg #79.

Turns out luajit2 is also broken on ppc64el; the build itself
completes but the program segfaults when running the testsuite.

As such, the original request stands: please remove the sysbench
package from ppc64el only.

Thanks!

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

  sysbench | 1.0.20+ds-2 | ppc64el

------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; breakage in luajit and luajit2 (build-)dependency
----------------------------------------------

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.

Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

The version of this package that was in Debian prior to this removal
can still be found using http://snapshot.debian.org/.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1012484@bugs.debian.org.
