Bug#680184: lsb-release appears to be uninstallable on mips, causes FTBFS

Package: lsb-release
Version: 4.1+Debian7
Severity: critical

Version: 4.1+Debian7

Hi,

python2.7 is in the "BD-uninstalable" state since 2 days apparently because the
buildd sees lsb-release as uninstallable:

"Dependency installability problem for python2.7 on mips:
  python2.7 (= 2.7.3-1) build-depends on one of:
  - lsb-release (= 4.1+Debian7)"

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=python2.7&suite=sid

I am of course not sure whether the problem lies actually within the lsb-
release package. python2.7 seems to have failed building on mips previously
anyway.

Kind regards, Thibaut.
