Exactly. And as the Build-Depends aren't available, the package will not 
be build again until somebody provides (hopefully working) libluajit 
binaries again.

Exactly.

[To answer the question in the other mail, no, I have absolutely no 
knowledge about lua at all. I know the name, and I know luajit is broken 
on ppc64el.]
