raxml uses xmmintrin.h header which is available only on amd64/i386 architectures as it is related to SSE instructions.

I looked at raxml failure on armel in Ubuntu [1] and then got
information about Debian bug [2].

raxml is using xmmintrin.h header file which is available only for x86
architectures (amd64/i386). Inside are functions which calls ASM
mnemonics directly. So it looks like package is buildable only on those
2 architectures (under Debian also will build for kFreeBSD ones).

I made debdiff which makes a change - it is available at Launchpad [3].

Thanks for the patch. I've gone ahead and sponsored it.

For future reference, I had a few small nits which I cleaned up before uploading:
- Each "*" in the changelog entry should indicate a new thought; it shouldn't be used to prefix each line
- When you're fixing a bug, the changelog entry should reference that bug with a "closer" - something like "(LP: #791321)" at the end of the line
- Please be sure to update the Maintainer field for compliance with <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField> when introducing a diff from Debian. The easy way to do this is to run update-maintainer from ubuntu-dev-tools

This bug was fixed in the package raxml - 7.2.6-1ubuntu1

* Mark as buildable only on amd64 and i386 architectures - SSE support is
required for this package. (LP: #791321)
