This kind of work is more than porting, the code is totally different on each architecture in order to exploit all the CPU execution units. Upstream is more or less dead, but I am not sure it would have helped anyway. In the meantime you can use the multiarch armhf package on arm64, even if it doesn't optimally burn the CPU. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 4096R/1DDD8C9B [email protected] http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
