Package: www.debian.org Followup-For: Bug #783655 Hello Paul et al.
My apologies for taking long to come back to this. So I have made some additions to the powerpc page instead of adding a new ppc64el page/directory to the tree. I don't know if it looks good, but it is something. Not sure if I really could but I also added a toc to the page. With all this, would it be possible to make the address debian.org/ports/ppc64el re-direct to debian.org/ports/powerpc, just like it is with arm/armel? Also, attention to the patch because there is a block that is changing the releases page, because there is a "Motorola/IBM PowerPC" (?) redirecting to ppc64el page which is not correct. Patch file is attached. Thanks!
