I've been discussing with schifra upstream and hope to have a fix very soon, so I prefer to wait a bit and get it fixed instead. They already put versioned binaries up on http://schifra.com/buildroot/ but I would prefer them to not do anything special for buildroot (that they might forget to maintain in the future).

There are many build failures caused by schifra, due to upstream changing the tarball without doing new releases. Since has been an on-going problem for some time, and is now the #1 issue in the autobuilders. So let's mark this package broken, until someone cares enough to fix it, or until we remove it.
