Bug#536676: plink: FTBFS on MIPS.
severity 536676 important thanks Since there is no plink package in testing for MIPS, this bug is not a regression, so I set the severity to important accordingly… -- Charles Plessy Debian Med packaging team, http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Generally, editors are installed on the host rather than in each chroot. In the specific case of mahler (the MIPS porter box) the host has vi, emacs and nano.

The following patch in debian/rules would to the job: You do know that you can try this yourself on mahler.d.o, right? Sure, but since plink seems to be fine on other architectures, this bug seems more relevant to MIPS than to plink. I do not think that anybody on Earth is interested to use plink on MIPS. So if it helped you to find a MIPS-relevant bug, I am happy, but if you (the MIPS porters) are not interested in solving it, I would rather not distribute this package on MIPS than accept the responsibility for managing a GCC bug, which is completely outside my field of competence. Said differently, if this bug is zero fun for everybody let's find a solution that allow us to focus on what we care the most. Can you file a bug report as per GCC bug reporting guidelines: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html We will try to fix it if it affects current GCC versions. Especially helpful would be preprocessed source and the exact command line flags used.

I hope that somebody on the debian-mips mailing list with better knowledge of GCC and the Debian porting infractructure can help you to get more information about this bug. I updated the Debian plink package to use -O2, but it did not circumvent the bug. Nevertheless, the build logs are also more verbose. https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=plink;ver=1.06-4;arch=mips;stamp=1247627291 Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Debian Med packaging team, http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
