package: palo
version: 0.93
severity: serious

In order for Debian to produce offical Debian CDs for HPPA they need
to be able to run palo on non-parisc systems, to make the CD images
bootable.  It is likely it needs to be packaged for i386, at least.
The problem is that a parisc (cross)compiler is needed to generate the
ipl code part of the palo build.

A proposed solution from Bdale is to include the ipl code binary in the
source package, and only regenerate it if building on parisc.

If palo.deb is going to be installed on non-hppa systems for debian-cd
use, it probably shouldn't store iplboot in /boot.  Somewhere like
/usr/lib/palo/iplboot would make more sense.
