Hi,
the firefox package fails to build on ppc64 since it tries to use lld
which does not support PowerPC ELF v1:
Is that a big issue? I got the impression Debian PPC64 was ABI2 only?
It's just that when I found my new Debian install crashing it came down
to an ABI issue. As soon as I used an ABI2 kernel my problems went away.
System, apt and all other binaries started working. When I checked the
vmlinux 6.12.17-powerpc64 kernel from Debian GNU/Linux 12.0.0 "Sid" -
Unofficial ppc64 NETINST 20250316 on the net installer it was ABI2.
