## gmp-ecm

Still working with upstream towards a fix.
This week I did some tests for upstream in my ci20 mipsel machine.

## capnproto

Maintainer asked for a buildd rebuild, but I'm still working with
upstream to address the FTBFS on mipsel.

## pax-utils

Sent patch for bug #793010 [8] and the package is now fixed.

## opencollada

Working on it. Opened bug #794276 [9] and contacted upstream [10].

## nim

Working on it. Opened bug #794273 [11] and contacted upstream [12].

## madness

Working on it. Opened bug #794278 [13] and contacted upstream [14].

[14] https://github.com/m-a-d-n-e-s-s/madness/issues/148

## ioapps

I keep this package in my radar but I strongly suspect that upstream
project is more than dead.
If no news, next week I plan to give up and forget about this package.

## ncl

No news for ncl this week. The maintainer involved in the fix is busy
ATM and can't help me.
