Hi Guillaume,
Look at devel:ARM:AArch64:12.3, we have around 1500 packages as well. No image yet though.
Oh, 2113 packages in succeeded state! Awesome! Too bad that we have no image yet. I guess kiwi need some hack to get AArch64 image?
The plan was to do an announcement about the state today. Too bad that Debian was faster :-(
Indeed but if we say: 2113 packages built, it is not so bad. :)
Any help with the announcement for s greatly appreciated.
Not too much time today but I will try to give some help about that. Any etherpad or wiki page for collaboration?
Email should be fine. Let's take the text below as a starting point. We really need to get this out this week or on Monday. Jos, I would greatly appreciate any help you could provide. openSUSE on AArch64 openSUSE is joining the crowd of 64 bit enabled ARM distributions. Within the past few months, the openSUSE team has worked very hard to get openSUSE up and rolling on ARM's new 64 bit capable architecture. By now, about 2400 packages built successfully. This is more than one third of the whole distribution. From all we know it's also more successful package builds than any other Linux distribution has on AArch64! If you'd like to see the status yourself, please check out the OBS repository we created for this [0]. As an open distribution, we also worked really hard to enable contributors to easily participate in the effort. For this, we extended osc (the OBS command line client) to automatically spawn a Foundation Model [1] virtual machine when you want to build for aarch64. More information on this is available on the respective wiki page [2]. Our next big milestone is going to he a working JeOS image - complete with YaST, openssh and everything you need for a simple and small system. We will create that using our standard image building tool kiwi and provide a ready-made image for the Foundation Model. Stay tuned! If all of the above got you curious and / or you would like to participate in this awesome effort, please join us on the openSUSE-ARM mailing list [3]. There is a lot of fun work to do and and you like open open source work, you are guaranteed to feel right at home.
