[R-pkg-team] Bug#1057203: r-bioc-rhdf5filters: missing build-dependency on big-endian architectures

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Graham,

thanks for bringing this up.

I have a totally different question concerning the transition.  At

    https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=r-bioc-ioniser

the build logs are lagging now nearly two days for all architectures.
Do you know whom to ask for the reason?

Kind regards
   Andreas.
