Source: pygobject
Version: 3.54.3-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs experimental
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]
User: [email protected]
Usertags: s390x

Usertags: ppc64
Control: found -1 3.54.5-2

pygobject's build fails on s390x and ppc64 with a log similar to the one
below. It succeeded on powerpc and ppc64el, which strongly suggests an
endianness issue - probably mixing up a pointer to a 32-bit quantity
with a pointer to a 64-bit quantity, which on little-endian is masked by
the earlier bytes of the 64-bit thing being the least significant bytes
of its value, and the later bytes in practice being all-zeroes or
all-ones.
libpeas/experimental failed to build on the same architectures, with the
older pygobject 3.52.x. It isn't necessarily very worthwhile to
investigate that until pygobject is fixed, because a newer pygobject
might fix it anyway, so I'm not reporting a bug for that right now.
