Hi all, I am packaging sunpinyin. The install script of this software will identify the endian-ness of the building machine and generate a binary data file from its architecture independent format. And the executable only works with the data file of appropriate endian-ness.
So, to minimize the usage of debian mirror space and bandwidth, I think the best way to package it is to create two more data packages, one for big-endian, the other for small-endian. The problem is that the upstream does not provide any way to generate the data file of specified endian-ness. I also examined the source file only to find out there is no straightforward way to do it other than to swap the bits at all the places where the endian-ness kicks in. Is there any way to work it out? Thanks in advance. -- Regards Kov Chai -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
