In deed, a Loongson guy told me that their customers are using mapnik. He didn't tell me the customers of course. @Anibal, @Douglas, I guess we should also ask for any our customers are using it. @Sebastiaan, I know it is a quite hard work to maintain so many packages, and before the response from MIPS is some slow, I am very sorry of that. Anyway, we can have a quicker response in future. > I'm inclined to close this as wontfix until actual users of mapnik > request it on mips64el. > > Kind Regards, > > Bas -- YunQiang Su _______________________________________________ Pkg-grass-devel mailing list Pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-grass-devel
