I have no idea what the list is though, I'm basically walking my way through
packages and fixing them progressively; some are already fixed because the fix
was merged promptly in Debian and we merged / synced this Debian source into
Ubuntu, some might have a fix in the Debian package, in the Debian BTS, or
still have to be fixed. As an example, adding support to dpkg is a trivial
patch, but it would be painful to have to reupload dpkg with armhf changes in
our PPA after every dpkg upload in natty (of course I could take a snapshot of
Ubuntu and work from that). In the same way, I think there are many trivi
al
fixes in various packages. What I'm anticipating is perhaps some dozens of
uploads with trivial or straightforward / non-risky changes, and perhaps a
dozen of more tricky uploads which would require a FFE on their own. Does that
make sense? -- Loïc Minier
It does make sense, but I'd expected since Markos already bootstrapped armhf on
Debian and did an NMU campaign there you would have a pretty solid basis for a
list from that.
Even if it's just a general bug against Ubuntu, this should still be in LP.
