Hi Dirk,
thank you very much!
I'm using Rpi1 and Rpi2 with tumbleweed in several places as mini server
for OpenVPN, Hylafax (with USB-modem), DHCP, DNS (bind), Apache and NTP,
some of them even as SuSEFirewall2 with a second LAN-interface via USB,
thus I'm eager to keep them up to date.
With best regards,
Ralph

When will the armv6hl arch of tumbleweed get updates like for example the
current bind package, etc.?
Unfortunately armv6hl is in a pretty bad state because it is still
built in qemu emulation, and noone maintains that emulation layer.
There are several known defects related to signal handling and
incorrect implementation of vfork() for example that cause most of the
jobs to fail.
To recover from that state, I switched to native building for now,
which could be a temporary measure to unblock the building of the
majority of packages. I'll see if I can do a hybrid approach or
something else to get this into a better state. Also I would like to
understand the impact of that on the (scarse) armv6/v7 capable build
workers (most workers we have currently can only build aarch64 and
have no armv7 support anymore).
Over the long run we need to find a different solution though (which
could be dropping it alltogether, in the worst case). For now I take
it as a positive sign that someone does actually care about it being
available :-)
Greetings,
Dirk
