Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal Greetings,
In kmc version 3 and newer, the upstream author developed strong optimization techniques against x86_64 CPUs, with runtime detection of CPU SIMD extensions. However, as a result, these optimizations made it quite hard to port on other architectures that were previously supported. While there seems to be users needing this package for other architectures[1], it is unclear yet whether upstream has plans to extend architectures support yet. [1] https://github.com/refresh-bio/KMC/issues/154 We hope to be capable of providing cross-architecture support again in the future, through SIMDe or similar approach, but for now the package is affected by the RC bug #954270, which seems to be fixed by the new upstream version, so time is of the essence, if we want that package available in Bullseye.
