Hi Fred, I'm not sure that I misunderstood what you mean.

pocl 7.1-1 is already uploaded to experimental.
pkg-kde-tools 0.21.0~pre1 is also recently uploaded to experimental.

Do you mean it's pkg-kde-tools that is causing pocl's symbol problems?
Is it pkg-kde-tools 0.21.0~pre1 that fixes the problem,
such that pocl 7.1 just needs a rebuild?

Drew
