Is there a need to continue big-endian support? I mean, we leave in the
big-endian specific code, but just leave it untested. Worry about it
only if the need arises.

Hi,
Interesting. I didn't know you could do that ( and that, and that).
Thanks for the information.
By the way, the webhooks can be added through the bitbucket admin
interface. Any of the admins can add them in there.
Am I able to add other users to the launchpad pygame team? I'd
probably want a separate "pygame Robot" user which is able to upload
to launchpad repos+PPAs.
I think for now, the code is building and all but one test is running.
For me, this is enough for now. I'll concentrate on fixing the failing
test in the lib/compat.py and getting a qemu build going. I have a
mate running a freebsd PPC laptop that might be able to give pygame a
build... I'll see how that goes. According to him the more recent
debian/ubuntu releases don't work so well, so he had to change to freebsd.
best,

I guess we should incorporate the Debian changes, but I wanted

Fine by me. I just copied the packaging from Debian/Ubuntu
originally anyway, so bringing in the updates is probably useful.
They use an interesting method to do a hg clone. I'm not sure
how to actually use this though... (see get-orig-source-hg in
rules). In rev 19 I changed that to get the latest rev from
hg. But I guess they want to specify a specific version.
AFAIK, the builders never actually run that target (and even if
they did, they don't have outside network access). Unlike
everything else in debian/rules, it's there for human packagers to
run to get the data and then upload it. Debian packaging can be
pretty ugly at times.
Since you already have a machine running a custom webhook when
there are new commits, perhaps it's best to use that to upload
directly to Launchpad for PPA builds, bypassing Launchpad's code
import and recipe builds:
https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading
You'd need to work out how to get from a source tree to a Debian
source package locally, though. I'm sure GPG signatures are
involved somehow.
Best wishes,
Thomas
