Hello The bug 770670 [1] reports that compilation of a software including libsdl2 is not possible on ppc64el when g++ is used with option "-std=c++0x".
This bug was flagged "serious" by Bastian (cc'ed). On one hand the fix is easy: It's just a matter of disabling a compilation option (configure --disable-altivec) when compiling on ppc64el, just like when compiling on powerpc. (see diff below). Only ppc64el version of the package will actually be different. On the other hand, this issue occurs when using an special option of g++, so the bug may be considered as more normal than serious. (Frankly, I don't know) What do you advise ? [ ] Should I upload the fixed package to unstable and file an unblock bug ? [ ] Or just upload a fixed package to experimental ? All the best PS: Bastian, thanks for the detailed analysis The bug: [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770670 The diff: $ git diff diff --git a/debian/rules b/debian/rules index 975e408..af65dd2 100755 --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -16,6 +16,10 @@ ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU),powerpc) confflags += --disable-altivec endif +ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU),ppc64el) + confflags += --disable-altivec +endif + # disable Wayland on non-Linux, they do not support other kernels at the moment ifeq (hurd,$(findstring hurd,$(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU))) confflags += --disable-video-wayland -- https://github.com/dod38fr/ -o- http://search.cpan.org/~ddumont/ http://ddumont.wordpress.com/ -o- irc: dod at irc.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
