Are we there yet? Are we there yet? ;-). I think for the last 5 or so releases I updated pretty soon after the official release, so this looks new... I once donated a ppc g4 mac mini to some openbsd dev. If it helps, I could donate my loongson box. Just let me know. Regards, rck
mips64el packages deprecated?
Hi guys, Today I upgraded to OpenBSD 6.1 and saw that none of the mirrors seem to contain packages for mips64el anymore. For example compare [1] and [2]. Is that intentional? I wonder because mips64el is still in the "Many pre-built packages for each architecture" list[3]. Are they still building? Am I one of the last 3 people that have Loongsons? ;-) Regards, rck [1] http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.0/packages/ [2] http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.1/packages/ [3] https://www.openbsd.org/61.html
