Source: ncbi-vdb
Version: 2.7.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source

Hi, Andreas.

The x32 build of ncbi-vdb failed:

  /usr/include/features.h:364:25: fatal error: sys/cdefs.h: No such file or directory
   #  include <sys/cdefs.h>
 
That's because it was looking for the amd64 version of this header,
because the build system explicitly specified -m64.  Please remove
this flag -- -m32, -m64, and the like are never needed for native
compilation, and package builds should use them only in special cases.

Thanks!
