Comment 7 for bug 183495

Has anyone tried the PALO hack that I mentioned in #64501? I don't have sparc hardware to fiddle with this one, but I could fix the PPC issue, and skeleton in a similar fix for the sparc one. Ultimately, though, it will need someone to take ownership of doing the not-quite-source source uploads. Simple enough to do, I guess, if we carry an Ubuntu revision, and make it painfully obvious that the source package must be built on the native arch (with a sane toolchain, etc).

I dunno. The only non-icky solution to this is arch:all affinity in Soyuz, but that never happened while I was working for Canonical, and while I think it's still deep down on someone's TODO, it's clearly not high priority, given the relatively limited payout for a reasonably annoying change in plumbing.
