[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#798637: Bug#798637: rna-star: FTBS on mpis

[Sascha Steinbiss]

Hi,

just a gentle reminder that I will be filing a removal request for the
non-building or non-functional architectures soon. According to my build
time tests, rna-star builds _and_ works on amd64, arm64, ppc64el and
mips64el [1]. I will disable all others -- please let me know if you
have objections.

Cheers
Sascha
