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

The full build log is available from:

It is possible that your package builds fine in sid, but you should make sure
that your package also builds fine in squeeze before the release.

A list of current common problems and possible solutions is available at 
http://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS . You're welcome to contribute!

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on about 50 AMD64 nodes
of the Grid'5000 platform, using a clean chroot.  Internet was not
accessible from the build systems.
