commit 1b98c8fc4f5f9741e40e318e47a9f3f3439d506a
Merge: 9282b28 ee8324d
Author: Andreas Tille <tille@debian.org>

commit ee8324d8aaecb2e737ca81d67b670faa4b879edf
Author: Karsten Schöke <karsten.schoeke@geobasis-bb.de>
Date:   Tue Apr 28 10:10:39 2026 +0200

    Disable LexActivator on unsupported architectures (loong64, sparc64)
    
    LexActivator is a proprietary third-party licensing library which is not
     available in Debian and has no prebuilt binaries for loong64 or sparc64.
     .
     The build system unconditionally links against -lLexActivator, which causes
     a linker failure on these architectures:
       /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lLexActivator
     .
     Since LexActivator is only used for optional license/activation features and
     is not required for core functionality, disable it on unsupported
     architectures to allow successful builds.

testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for psychtoolbox-3 (3.0.22.2+dfsg-3 to 3.0.22.2+dfsg-5): BLOCKED: Maybe temporary, maybe blocked but Britney is missing information (check below)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Missing build on loong64
- ∙ ∙ Lintian check waiting for test results on loong64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 4 of 5 days old
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/p/psychtoolbox-3.html
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on amd64 (not a regression): octave-psychtoolbox-3
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on arm64 (not a regression): octave-psychtoolbox-3
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on armhf (not a regression): octave-psychtoolbox-3
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on i386 (not a regression): octave-psychtoolbox-3
