Matthias Klose dijo [Sat, May 10, 2003 at 12:24:16PM +0200]: - mips and mipsel packages aren't built yet. There is a lack of mips/mipsel machine available to developers. I have a couple of Indy machines over here... I was planning to offer one of them as a public developer machine - I only need to get a larger hard disk (they have 400MB, I think - way too little to be useful) and if possible more RAM (they have 32MB - At least 64 would be nice). Yes, a MIPS machine is not really required now, as we have te buildds - but it certainly would be useful :) If you want to work on my machine as it is now, please send me a message, and I'll give you an account.

re: planning binutils NMU (testing wanted ...)
Matthias, I rebuilt your test debian binutils 2.14.90.0.1-0.1 package on my debian ppc sid box and it looks fine. The places where we diverge are... your build... === binutils Summary === # of expected passes28 # of untested testcases 4 and my build === binutils Summary === # of expected passes31 # of expected failures 1 This difference of 4 untested test cases is due to you having dejagnu 1.4.3 installed and my having downgraded to 1.4.2. The other divergence is... your build... === ld Summary === # of expected passes171 # of unexpected failures6 # of unexpected successes 4 # of expected failures 8 and my build... === ld Summary === # of expected passes177 # of unexpected successes 4 # of expected failures 8 These 6 unexpected failures strongly suggest that the ppc sid build machine you used had been prelinked. Currently we are waiting for Jakub to debug why prelinking causes these 6 unexpected failures. Since I have unprelinked my machine they aren't triggered. In any case, they are non-fatal for us. Jack

In the same directory there is a README.test-summaries, which compares the test results from the installed version on the build machines with the results form the newly built version. Dan already told me about some failures which are expected with our current glibc version. Are these packages good enough for an NMU? Cool. I think it's fine to upload it. I rebuild the latest 2.3.2-1 with this binutils, and it looks ok on i386. However I have not checked this version on the other architecture. Thanks to Matthias, Chris, and Dan! - mips and mipsel packages aren't built yet. There is a lack of mips/mipsel machine available to developers. Well, it's really problem for toolchain packages.
