FYI. As part of the glibc 2.28 development upstream plans to change the ppc64le default ABI for long double from "IBM long double" to "IEEE 128-bit long double", this change is documented here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/PPC64LE_Float128_Transition
We have a potential problem here in that the required changes may not be ready for 2018-07-11 mass rebuild per the current Fedora 29 schedule: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/29/Schedule I will keep the following tickets updated: (Releng) https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7475 (FESco) https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1925 Upstream may delay the ABI freeze by two weeks: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-06/msg00818.html which means an optimal mass rebuild might be a week later on 2018-07-18. To be clear I am not requesting any change at this point. I am only providing a heads-up that there is a potential for a delay here or if it comes to it a complete cancellation of the float128 transition for ppc64le (which we wouldn't like to see, but there are deadlines).
