Hi Ralph, 2017-07-05 15:13 GMT+02:00 BWC Illmensee GmbH - Ralph Gauer <ralph.gauer@bwc-illmensee.de>:
When will the armv6hl arch of tumbleweed get updates like for example the current bind package, etc.?
Unfortunately armv6hl is in a pretty bad state because it is still built in qemu emulation, and noone maintains that emulation layer. There are several known defects related to signal handling and incorrect implementation of vfork() for example that cause most of the jobs to fail. To recover from that state, I switched to native building for now, which could be a temporary measure to unblock the building of the majority of packages. I'll see if I can do a hybrid approach or something else to get this into a better state. Also I would like to understand the impact of that on the (scarse) armv6/v7 capable build workers (most workers we have currently can only build aarch64 and have no armv7 support anymore). Over the long run we need to find a different solution though (which could be dropping it alltogether, in the worst case). For now I take it as a positive sign that someone does actually care about it being available :-) Greetings, Dirk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
