Dear maintainers,

We have been working for a while to get a working libluajit on ppc64el 
(for reference, see history in bug #1012362). In the end we concluded 
that it's not going to work as commitment upstream is lacking to support 
ppc64el.

Your source package build depends on libluajit-5.1-dev when building on 
ppc64el and at least one of its binaries depends on libluajit-5.1-2 on 
that architecture. Please use liblua on ppc64el if that works for your 
package, otherwise please request removal of the binaries on ppc64el 
(e.g. by reassigning the bug to ftp.debian.org, lowering severity and 
re-titling appropriately).

Sorry we couldn't solve the problem in a better way.

Paul
