Thanks for review, very useful, as usual!

I did compile test all of them, yes. For all the existing packages, I
also did a comparison between a build before the patch series, and
after the patch series. The list of installed files are similar, except
for python-thrift and python-protobuf (see
http://code.bulix.org/panul0-85169?raw), but these differences are not
important apparently, which Gustavo confirmed on IRC. Also, I verified
that all the native libraries (.so files) are properly built for ARM,
to at least verify that some native compilation hasn't sneaked into the
build.

Best regards,

Thomas
