  26 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_backport_bitcoin_qt_version_0_7_2_2_to_Debian_Squeeze.html">last
  27 bitcoin related blog post</a> mentioned that the new
  28 <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/bitcoin">bitcoin package</a> for
  29 Debian was waiting in NEW.  It was accepted by the Debian ftp-masters
  30 2013-01-19, and have been available in unstable since then.  It was
  31 automatically copied to Ubuntu, and is available in their Raring
  32 version too.</p>
  33
  34 <p>But there is a strange problem with the build that block this new
  35 version from being available on the i386 and kfreebsd-i386
  36 architectures.  For some strange reason, the autobuilders in Debian
  37 for these architectures fail to run the test suite on these
  38 architectures (<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/672524">BTS #672524</a>).
  39 We are so far unable to reproduce it when building it manually, and
  40 no-one have been able to propose a fix.  If you got an idea what is
  41 failing, please let us know via the BTS.</p>
  42
  43 <p>One feature that is annoying me with of the bitcoin client, because
  44 I often run low on disk space, is the fact that the client will exit
  45 if it run short on space (<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/696715">BTS
  46 #696715</a>).  So make sure you have enough disk space when you run
  47 it. :)</p>
  48
  49 <p>As usual, if you use bitcoin and want to show your support of my
  50 activities, please send Bitcoin donations to my address
