Dear developers, When the armhf architecture was introduced in Ubuntu for 12.04 LTS, it was with the intention of transitioning our ARM builds entirely from armel to armhf, to take advantage of this more efficient hard-float ABI on the supported ARMv7 targets. We achieved this in 12.04, with all released images shipping as armhf instead of armel.
Now, after a transitional overlap, it's time to take the next step and drop the armel architecture from Ubuntu. We will shortly be removing armel from the raring archive. This allows us to free up builder resources previously dedicated for building armel and repurpose them for building armhf. There will continue to be armel builders for previous releases, for building stable updates; but from raring on you should expect your packages to build for armhf only, not armel. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
