Hi,
to avoid package incompatibilities with other rpm based distros, I am about to switch the rpm architecture to "armv7hl" again. "armv7l" will be used as backward compatibility, so it should not cause trouble.
Could not we keep the armv7l and have armv7hl as compatibility? Maybe this way is fine for openSUSE but not for other distros? They may also do some hacks to be compatible. Which distro use armv7l, armv7hl or other? I think we should use the right name (armv7l?) and not use a bad name because some other distro use it. Guillaume
However, I will wait for the new gcc with new runtime linker path before doing an entire rebuild. Just in case you wonder why we will have both rpm architectures for some time.
We will not hack the kernel to report (the not existing) armv7hl architecture, we will go with a hack in rpm instead assuming that armv7l hardware is always armv7hl.
In case we want to have armv7l (or armv7nhl or whatever) later on in parallel, we will need to enhance the rpm dependency scripts to extend the keys similar to the 64bit approach. But there is no cross distro standard atm.
