RFC: turn off ppc32 and ppc64 big endian builds on openSUSE:Factory:PowerPC
Larry: Why waste time running a new install, if you have a debian system already in place you should be able to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file to whatever selection of repos will work with your machine. F

OK, I found my way to the actual list-serve and I'm posting to it here as a test to see if total order is maintained or . . . total breakdown of the social order by emailing my posts into the fray. No links to this list are provided in the digest emails . . . only the email address . . . .

The horror . . . so as posted above I did find my way to the actual list-serve and I did post there, or here, in what would seem to be the broken thread. Mea culpa. But, as mentioned above, there are no instructions on "needing to post in the list" . . . and it seems like this behavior is **unique** to the new server for the list-serve?? Traditionally in list-serve, and I believe now in github, one can post there OR via email and it goes to the thread, without "breaking it"? In gmail there is no option for "reply to list" . . . just reply or "reply all." Anyway, I am modifying my anti-list behaviors . . . by posting directly within the list . . . now here in this errant thread.

So maybe we switch this option off? Or add a no-reply address as return, so evreybody gets aware that you should *not* use digests when you want to participate in a discussion? My 2c Axel
