Oops, that should be: git://www.jdl.com/software/dtc.git

git://www.jld.com/software/dtc.git

Though the kernel embeds the dtc source in it now, and a stand-alone
dtc is not required for kernel builds.

PowerPC is supported in the upstream GNU glibc and gcc projects.  There
is no separate repository for those.  The PowerPC maintainers for those
projects can be found on the website for glibc (it's Steven Munroe), or
in the MAINTAINERS file in gcc.  PowerPC is called 'rs6000' in gcc for
historical reasons.

Getting Debian to release the PowerPC port

2008-09-10 Thread Rogério Brito
Dear Paul,

I would like to ask you a few things:

* which is the official dtc git repository?
  I ask it here because dtc.ozlabs.org doesn't seem to work, but this is
  what is linked to from the page  and the
  device-tree-compiler package on Debian has an outdated page (it
  seems). I already filed a bugreport to that package
  (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=497605).

* where can I find the people responsible for glibc and gcc/g++ so that
  I can fill in the empty fields at
  , so that
  powerpc does not become "at risk" of not being released? Is the
  powerpc port cared by some team in special or is it just a "unified"
  upstream?


Thanks in advance, Rogério Brito.
