</div>Yann has a case open at Oracle, but I doubt we get anything useful out of it.<br>
For now I recommend just adding the extra deps and unconditionally overriding<br>
them for i386. For mid-term William told me he will get some T5220 and he would<br>
be willing to give one to the project. This would allow me another build-only<br>
machine which is not going to be updated. Then we could also really stick to<br>
u8 (or u5?) for all packaging zones. But don't expect this before q2 2014.<br>
<br>
Sorry for the inconvenience<br>
