I also let mardy know in #ubports to try to make sure they know that Unity8 and phablet-tools and goget-ubuntu-touch will likely be dropped from Ubuntu 17.10 soon. They're already maintaining their stack in PPAs and I think that's meeting their needs ok right now.

It can be re-added later if someone volunteers. phablet-tools also fails to build (pep8) but I don't think it's very useful without ubuntu-device-do and ubuntu-device-flash. Background ========== Since Canonical's Ubuntu phone project is ending and no one has stepped up to maintain Ubuntu's android-tools fork, we are syncing the Android stack from Debian. This benefits users by allowing them to use the latest adb and fastboot instead of an old copy. There are a few obsolete binaries that need to be removed to make this happen, because Debian's android-tools is only built for a limited set of supported architectures (not ppc64el or s390x). Original Report =============== Please delete these binaries: android-tools-fsutils for ppc64el and s390x ubuntu-device-do for ppc64el ubuntu-device-flash for ppc64el These are listed on update_excuses.html or update_output.txt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/android-tools/+bug/1699928/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
