boost build looks screwed. pts also looks screwed. ehi..  also
http://people.debian.org/~igloo looks screwed... hmm...

it looks like boost is ready to enter testing but powerpc, mips, mipsel
and of course m68k are still missing.

things got wrong when boost has been scheduled for the 1.33.1-7+b1 binary
NMU, which was not required and that IIRC i also asked to not schedule.

porting debian on powerpc64 (ibm pseries)

2002-06-06 Thread Domenico Andreoli
hi,

my job made me very near to a couple of ibm powerpc64. i'll have full
control on both of them for months. one of them is going to run linux
(suse, at the moment), but my own personal wish is to make debian run
on it and maybe to start a port.

what i have done:
1. i started peeking http://linuxppc64.org
2. i patched the kernel
3. i patched binutils
4. i didn't patch modutils (i don't want modules now)

what i have to do:
1. compile the kernel
2. lots of thing i still don't even imagine

as i understood i need a cross compiler. i usually work on i386. how do
i setup it?

i need a lot of suggestions.

thanks
cavok
