+Title: Bitcoin GUI now available from Debian/unstable (and Ubuntu/raring)
+Tags: english, debian, bitcoin

+<p>My
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_backport_bitcoin_qt_version_0_7_2_2_to_Debian_Squeeze.html">last
+bitcoin related blog post</a> mentioned that the new bitcoin package
+for Debian was waiting in NEW.  It was accepted by the Debian
+ftp-masters 2013-01-19, and have been available in unstable since
+then.  It was automatically copied to Ubuntu, and is available in
+their Raring version too.</p>
+
+<p>But there is a strange problem with the build that block this new
+version from being available on the i386 and kfreebsd-i386
+architectures.  For some strange reason, the autobuilders in Debian
+for these architectures fail to run the test suite on these
+architectures <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/672524">BTS #672524</a>.
+We are so far unable to reproduce it when building it manually, and
+no-one have been able to propose a fix.  If you got an idea what is
+failing, please let us know via the BTS.</p>
