[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: liblatex-table-perl
Version: 0.9.17-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: qa-ftbfs-20090822 qa-ftbfs
Justification: FTBFS on amd64

Hi,

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

Relevant part:

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.
