[Bug 268132] [NEW] Gcj-4.2 version 4.2.4-3ubuntu1 has not-policy-compliant Build-depends.

Binary package hint: gcj-4.2

Build-depends of gcj contains empty bracket: "[]".

As Debian policy stands, in 7.1, architecture-specific dependencies could be either all negated architectures (e.g. 'foo [!m68k !arm]') or all non-negated architectures (e.g. 'foo [m68k arm]').
So, it's impossible to tell whether an empty list is inclusive or exclusive, and as such it would be impossible to tell whether that dependency has to be considered or not.

This could lead to build problem, as the implementation of build
machines could be different.

** Affects: gcj-4.2 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
