Debian Science Maintainers,

Bug #642248 was recently reported.  Essentially, the submitter observed
that older 32-bit machines did not work with tbb.  Because of an
oversight on my part, this was not adequately documented in the package
description.

I have added the following to the package descriptions for the binary
pacakges produced from the tbb source package:

+ (Note: if you are a user of the i386 architecture, i.e., 32-bit Intel
+ or compatible hardware, this package only supports Pentium4-compatible
+ and higher processors.)
+ .

I am providing you this information, as you are listed as the maintainer
of the following packages:

libmesh0.7.1
libdeal.ii7.0.0
clasp
libfeel++-dev

This packages have reverse dependencies on one or more of the tbb binary
packages.

Regards,

-Roberto
