In short: That's strange... In this case an access to a porter box
with mips and/or mipsel would be also helpful?

Longer version: The logs on
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=castle-game-engine&arch=mips&ver=6.2%2Bdfsg1-1&stamp=1499894290&raw=0
say:

EFreeTypeLibraryNotFound: Cannot load FreeType library, loading font
files not possible

This indicates that
  dlopen("libfreetype.so", RTLD_LAZY or RTLD_GLOBAL)
and then
  dlopen("libfreetype.so.6", RTLD_LAZY or RTLD_GLOBAL)
failed.

But the contents of libfreetype6-dev on mips seem normal (
https://packages.debian.org/sid/mips/libfreetype6-dev/filelist ). So
there's some weird problem that I don't understand. My knowledge about
mips and mipsel architecture is zero, so this just requires testing to
see what's going on :)

Thank you!

The message I received when I got the porter box access (on
2015-12-02) said that it expires on 2016-03-01. The command
"ldapsearch -LLL -b dc=debian,dc=org -x -h db.debian.org uid=michalis
allowedHost" confirmed it. I just checked, and indeed I can't login
with ssh anymore to the machines I had access previously.

Michalis
