About package
--------------
Linux system call numbers for different architectures.
That's all.

Was there anything wrong with
https://code.dlang.org/packages/syscall-d ?
From it's readme:
Supported Platforms:
Linux-x86_64
Linux-x86
OSX-x86_64
FreeBSD-x86_64
i.e. x86[_64] only.
mir-linux-kernel has all the supported archs.
Still, I would first try to submit a PR to syscall-d, and only
go for a new package if syscall-d owners refuse to extend the
list of platforms.
Now we have two different packages that are supposed to do the
same but have different arbitrary limitations.
The goal of this package is linux support, and the code is
autogenerated from Linux sources. It may include other linux
kernel headers in the future.
I don't see any problem here. The syscall-d can import
mir-linux-kernel if they want to have the best linux support and
provide something for other OS.
Best,
Ilya
