Hi, I've upgraded the flashrom Debian package to a more recent svn snapshot recently, and noticed that it won't build on all architectures Debian supports (yet?).
See here: http://buildd.debian.org/pkg.cgi?pkg=flashrom It builds fine on alpha, amd64, arm, i386, ia64. On the other architectures (mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390) it fails with flash.h:28:20: error: sys/io.h: No such file or directory (build logs are available in the above URL) Now, my question is whether this can be fixed easily or if there is some fundamental reason why flashrom will never build on those architectures? Well, sys/io.h is not available there, but as far as I know we only need it for outb() and friends? Is there another way to do the equivalent of outb() on those architectures? On hppa, m68k and sparc the build was not even attempted, as it's currently marked as "won't build there" in a certain config file of the Debian build daemons: http://cvs.debian.org/srcdep/Packages-arch-specific?root=dak&view=markup Is that correct? Or is it just that we need to port it until it's able to be built there? I'm willing to help with testing if anyone is interested in working on this...
