If you are > knowledgeable about the topic, I'm looking for help :-) Not aware of that bug, I am maintaining the four (five) arm flavors in my spare time and that is not working well, with armv6hl and armv7hl 5.3 still missing on master branch for weeks. So adding another separately maintained flavor to my plate will not be appreciated. I'd much prefer the default (aarch64) and lpae (armv7hl) flavors to be reused please.

Yes, because openSUSE:Factory:ARM and openSUSE:Factory:PowerPC are just links to openSUSE:Factory. So, if you update a package to Factory which breaks aarch64 or ppc64, then it is broken in linked projects. Thanks, Guillaume > > Thanks > Marco > > > Thanks, > > Guillaume

[opensuse-arm] katacontainers broken on non-x86_64 architectures
by Guillaume Gardet 04 Sep '19

04 Sep '19

Hi, katacontainers and katacontainers-image-initrd are broken on non-x86_64 architectures. The main reason is katacontainers-image-initrd requires kernel-kvmsmall which is available only on x86_64 and katacontainers package now requires it. So, should we use kernel-default on other archs, or should we add kvmsmall to kernel flavors on non-x86_64? And we also have the vmlinux/vmlinuz problem: * x86_64 uses vmlinuz-%version-%flavor * ppc64le uses vmlinux-%version-%flavor * aarch64 uses vmlinux-%version-%flavor.gz (compressed version) Marco, when you update a package, please do not break all non-x86_64 archs.

Hello, I prepared an install procedure for the espressobin board: https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:EspressoBin The procedure became quite complex and I want to ask if there is a simpler approach to get opensuse arm64 efi working?
