In other words, what is the advantage over arm-linux-gnueabihf? I worry that some tools may not like it --- for example, package names like mlton-target-arm-linux-gnueabi_hf are not allowed. Which looks very much surmountable, but just in case, it seems prudent to ask. Just to be clear, this is not an objection (both triplets look fine to me). I ask in the hope of getting the rationale well documented. Thanks, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: Bug#594179: dpkg armhf patch acceptance status?
After a short discussion with Steve and later with Guillem on IRC, I think it's time to make a final decision about this issue. To cut the long story short, I agree with Steve's proposal on this: arm-linux-gnueabi_hf If we all agree on this, let's please have a dpkg release with the final armhf triplet included so that I can continue work on the other issues (d-i support, multiarch migration) :) Regards Konstantinos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-dpkg-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I ask in the hope of getting the rationale well documented. Sigh, fine, whatever. Nothing personal Jonathan, it just feels extremely frustrating to always have a point raised when we're about to finally make a decision - and yes, it's a very valid point that you raised. So, yes, ok, finally, let's agree -for the last time I hope- on the underscore-less triplet: arm-linux-gnueabihf So, can we please, please, close this bug and get on with other issues?
