arm*/mips*/s390x woes
We seem to be stalled on these two major blockers: hackage-security: broken on mips/mipsel - could be fixed via cryptohash-sha256 (#899166) or alternately patching to build with cryptohash or cryptonite? pandoc: broken on armhf (due to GHC bug?) and mips and s390x (via cmark-gfm being broken on those architectures)

Re: Dropping sparc32 for lenny
Perhaps I'm missing something in the big picture, but isn't the only difference between debian-sparc and debian-sparc64 the kernel? The userland is 32bit in both. Almost. For etch we had somewhat of an embarrassing situation as a few released packages won't work on 32-bit SPARC processors. We have no mechanism to alert or prevent users from installing them where they won't work, and no one working to re-add support for older CPUs. For more information, see http://wiki.debian.org/Sparc64Only If we change the toolchain to default to compiling V8plus code, we will once again have consistency in the sparc port.

Re: building slrn on sparc
In fact, this behavior comes from a desire to do the right thing when building and bootstrapping gcc. GCC's bootstrap process expects that if the build/host system is sparc64-* that the system compiler, as well as the GCC binary produced by the gcc build itself, will both produce 64-bit executables by default. If this is not the case, the GCC bootstrap will flat out fail. I'm pretty sure that when I bootstrapped gcc 3.3 last year, uname was still returning 'sparc', and everything behaved exactly the way I wanted it to.

Re: procps doesn't buildd - /lib versus /lib64
No, Solaris has normal libs in /lib and their 64-bit libs in /lib64. Just like we do. Neat, huh? In which version is that true?
Re: building slrn on sparc
Then your other option, as mentioned a million times, is to run in a sparc32 /bin/sh environment and explicitly give -m64 to the compiler. This is what I do right now. This is also what the Debian buildd does right now, I believe. You can do what you want, you just don't like the way in which we've given you to go about doing it, and you hate the default. Sorry, you don't get to decide this. The default was sane before, and I'll continue to hope that it will change again.
Re: procps doesn't buildd - /lib versus /lib64
Since they introduced 64-bit userland support, from the beginning. 7, 8, and 9 have /usr/lib/64, which is a symlink to /usr/lib/sparcv9. There is no /usr/lib64. /lib is a symlink to /usr/lib, and there is no /lib64. Perhaps this is different in 10.
Re: ncurses
/usr/lib/libncurses.so is a symlink (see earlier message). I think its skipping the files because /usr/lib/libncurses.so doesn't point to any library. 'make menuconfig' has worked in the past, and minimal changes have been made to the box above and beyond dist-upgrade every now and then. Try touching the file /etc/disable_64_gcc
Re: ncurses
Heh, thanks - menuconfig works now. Are there any downsides to disabling this whilst building a kernel image? There are no downsides to disabling it forever. It merely tells the stupid gcc wrapper to not behave inconsistently and unexpectedly. You can achieve a similar effect by removing /usr/bin/gcc and replacing it with a symlink to /usr/bin/gcc-3.3, which is what is done on every other Debian architecture. gcc's default behavior still allows you to compile 64-bit objects and does not lead to inane and unexpected breakage such as you have just experienced by using BenC's wrapper.

Re: [kteague@sprocket.ddts.net: xserver-xsun drivers]
www.xfree86.org doesn't seem to say anything at all about Sun drivers. On a vaguely related note, is there a way other than gpm to get sunmouse support under X4?
Re: Woody: zsh-3.1.9-4: missing contents of /usr/lib/zsh/3.1.9?
I've just upgraded my SS10 to the latestgreatest packages in Woody, and it seems the zsh package is missing a bunch of .so's. The Intel package seems to contain all the dynamically-loaded shared objects that implement most of zsh's functionality, but the SPARC package seems to be not only missing the files but the functionality, too. What is the procedure when one platform's port of a package is broken? Should one file a bug against the package? Is there some other, more appropriate forum to raise issues like this? Definitely file a bug.
