| I hadn’t noticed, thanks for telling me. There is an unfortunate problem
| with it, though: you can’t use an architecture restriction like [arch1
| !arch2] in Build-Depends. That is, you can’t mix ! and non-!; if you

| Just removing “alpha” completely from the Build-Depends line will just
| do the right thing as far as I can see. Could you make another upload?
Thanks,
