Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on
amd64.

Relevant part (hopefully):
> /usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccenmGeH.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol `_D3std6random109__T21MersenneTwisterEngineTkVmi32Vmi624Vmi397Vmi31Vki2567483615Vmi11Vmi7Vki2636928640Vmi15Vki4022730752Vmi18Z21MersenneTwisterEngine9__T4seedZ4seedMFNaNbNfkZv' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
