-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 If we can ditch the requirement for v8 generally, then that will make security vulnerability management for the mongodb juju package a whole lot easier - and the Ubuntu Security Team a whole lot happier!
It will also make the packaging a bit simpler; MongoDB upstream use a shim'ed scons build file for the embedded v8 which does not work with arm right now; fixing that was on my list for this week.
