--- Begin Message ---Source: libgc Tags: upstream patch User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap Please support the tilegx architecture in libgc. Mallanox published their work[1] on tilegx and include a patch bundle[2] affecting multiple source packages including libgc. I am attaching their gc.fixup which still applies to libgc today. That makes libgc build, but it still lacks symbols for tilegx. Fortunately, the symbols are exactly the same as on arm64, so the following command can be used to update symbols: sed -i -e '/^ /s/=\(!\?\)arm64 /&\1tilegx /' debian/libgc1c2.symbols Please apply the attached patch and update the symbols. Maybe Chris Metcalf (included in X-Debbugs-Cc) can help upstream it.

--- Begin Message ---Control: tags -1 + wontfix The support for the tile port is about to be removed from linux. See https://lwn.net/Articles/749293/ and https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/7/424 for details. Thus it does not make any sense to keep a Debian port for it alive. Thus I am closing all relevant bug reports. Helmut
