It is an attractive idea, but can the packages do that, and still perform appropriate QA and development and debugging (as needed)? Cross compile can certainly be used for targeted packages, but I am not sure it solves the general problem of how big the core set of libraries are, and their dependencies going all the way down. However, I will be quite happy to know I am overthinking the potential issues. -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
