Package: libgcrypt11
Version: 1.4.4-2
Severity: grave

I've found this bug calling lpstat from cupsys:

$ gdb lpstat

Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
[Switching to Thread 0xb7b9c6e0 (LWP 2196)]
0xb7bae10e in _gcry_detect_hw_features () at hwfeatures.c:78
78      hwfeatures.c: No such file or directory.
        in hwfeatures.c

It means the libgcrypt11 uses opcodes illegal on real 486-compatible
machine, like Vortex86SX:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : unknown
cpu family      : 4
model           : 0

fpu             : no
fpu_exception   : no
