A few things to note:
- there are a lot of contrib packages that just don't build well on arm
- try to keep /sys/src/ape/lib fairly clean as Richard has with rpi
- I've learned my lesson and brought /sys/src/ape back in line
with sources.
- I have source to build libsec and libmp for ape on sources:
/n/sources/contrib/jas/src/ape-9mpsec.tar.gz
It needs a bit more testing, but does work with my upcoming
Python2.7 release and allows me to gut OpenSSL from the Python
dependency tree.
- we _may_ want to update /sys/src/cmd/bzip2 to a more modern version as
it's very likely that bzwrite.c needs to be brought in line with
the bzip2 1.0.6.
My upcoming Python2.7 port does depend on bzip2 as the bz2module is now
standard. I can use /sys/src/cmd/bzip2/lib but it causes a few python
test failures specific to bzwrite. If someone wants to put the effort
into bringing Russ' old bzip2 port up to current source that would be
great. Otherwise I'll just wrap the APE build of Python with it's own
bzip2 libs.
