Unless I am mistaken, the current way rpm is setup (version 3.0, latest
from the CVS/devel tree) it will recognize an armv3l architecture simply
as arm (and not armv3l). This is detected by what uname returns (I am
almost positive on this one).
If people are using rpm on armv3 architectures I can generate/submit
patches to recognize it properly.
While we are on the subject are people using rpm on armv2 and/or armv1
machines? If so, let me know and I will see about having those added in
as well. Is there anything greater then armv4 currently?
And one other thing I will need, is the default optflags for each of
armv2, armv3. Currently for armv4 we have:
optflags: armv4 -O2 -fsigned-char -fomit-frame-pointer
optflags: armv4b -O2 -fsigned-char -fomit-frame-pointer
optflags: armv4l -O2 -fsigned-char -fomit-frame-pointer
Is this compatible with armv2/3. I think there may be an issue with
"-fomit-frame-pointer".
Let me know,
-Rms
