Please try to package the latest version of undead, or - if that is
not desired - request a rebuild of the package on the failing
architectures.
The library seems to have been compiled with an outdated LDC compiler there.

As for the ppc64el version, it might not make sense to keep that
around. Maybe rebuilding it on that arch will fix the issue though.
How to proceed on the ppc64el arch support front is currently a bit
unclear, because upstream doesn't really test that port:
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2356#issuecomment-350394691

I have a few ideas on how to address that issue potentially though (by
using different D compilers for different architectures, for example,
or by just removing the ppc64el port).

Cheers,
