The arm64 port is now open in the main archive and the initial (build-essential) bootstrap set of packages was uploaded on friday. We expect official buildds to come online this week and start churning through the rebuild of everything.
Meanwhile the debian-ports archive is at 84.5% built, having been hovering tantalisingly close to the official qualification percentage of 85% for the last couple of weeks. (I think we'll be past that tomorrow sometime as 180 packages are currently queued). However there are some packages that do not yet build from the debian sources (well, there are at least 575 of those, but some are more important than others in bootstrapping terms). This list (generated once/day automatically): https://people.debian.org/~wookey/bootstrap/blockerlist shows packages which are out of date or not present at all and the number of packages which depend on them (indirectly). All the '14,000-odd' ones are in the SCC (strongly-connected core) and thus bootstrap-vital. Time is very short for bootstrapping arm64 in time for Jessie so anyone who can help out is very welcome. (I'm now pre-occupied with prep for the bootstrap/cross sprint next weekend so have run out of time for much more poking on this until debconf). Here is a summary of the status of the top 10: TL;DR. Someone Please look at qt4-x11 -fpermissive issue, libwebp neon issue, openjade autoconf issue If we fix those I believe the whole SCC should be buildable. * libwebp Newly appeared in SCC. Failing to build neon-related files. Needs investigation. * openjade DebianBug:#748626 Arch-independent breakage. Crufty old source needs autofoo updates due to make getting more picky. I've updated/modernised a load of stuff to fix the initial issue and get it mostly working, but there is still an issue with a missing make target. Current patch is in the bugrep. Someone please take a look. * gcc-4.9 DebianBug:#757153 new upload today should have fixed this. This one is the last package needed to get the buildd image up to date. * keyutils DebianBug:#757530 test failures. One lot has been fixed, but now we have new ones. This is suspected to be a kernel issue, which will hopefully go away on new buildds (or an upgrade to the existing buildds) * kde4libs Previously built OK. "out of memory" last time - currently retrying * qt4-x11 DebianBug:#735488 This one needs actual work. The existing patches are basically fine except for one bit that turns -fpermissive on in order to get round some casting complaints and make it build. Needs someone with some C++ foo to work out what's actually wrong and fix it properly: -fpermissive is not acceptable to the maintainers. There was also feedback on the atomics patch which needs replying to. * qtwebkit I patched this weeks ago but seem to have failed to file a bug. Will do that shortly. * webkitgtk Has built before. Ran out of memory this time - retrying * libprelude Has built before. Looks like the build was terminated for inactivity. I just rebuilt it and it worked OK (Not in the SCC from here on) * smpeg DebianBug:#757585 Needs re-autoconfing. I sent in a patch and mafm sorted out an rpath issue and uploaded within hours (cheers) - so that upload is waiting to build, but should be fine * gnupg2 DebianBug:#755061 Tests fail. This is an odd one: gpg-agent only works right if built with -O0. It's OK if built on on Ubuntu trusty, but those working binaries moved back to Debian still fail tests suggesting something else wrong in the environment or a library. Needs debugging. don't know if it can be reproduced on qemu? <all the rest> Feel free :-) Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Emdebian, Wookware, Balloonboard, ARM http://wookware.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
