Hello Guix! Attached the notes from the "Bootstrap what's next" session yesterday.
Greetings, Janneke - Branch wip-arm-bootstrap is getting ready but stuck at glibc-mesboot0, when finished: release mes-0.23. - Branch wip-full-source-bootstrap is ready for review; wait with merge until wip-arm-bootstrap? When finished, relase mes-0.24. - Support for PowerPC and RISC-V - Submitting a GSOC proposal to have a student help out with some of the problems ^^ - Building for PowerPC isn't straightforward. You'd need actual h/w to test things out. - Making the guix build system code less dependent on Guile and more dependent on MES - PowerPC + Glibc+GCC version combination during bootstrap is problematic on PowerPC. + Glibc changes introduces uncertainty. + Branch with bootstrap binaries is ready for merging: https://git.sr.ht/~lle-bout/guix/log/wip-ppc64le -- Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> | GNU LilyPond http://lilypond.org Freelance IT http://JoyofSource.com | Avatar® http://AvatarAcademy.com
