Manage the arm buildds at ARM.

Worked on packaging AI/ML stuff
Worked with rust team on unbunging 
Help with give-backs
Look at build issues brought to the attention of the debian-arm list

>  * Are you running/using Debian testing or sid on said port(s)?

Largely only for building. I tend to run stable on boxes doing real
work but switch to testing for half a release on development
machines. I've never been a 'run sid on real machines' sort of person.

>  * Are you testing/patching d-i for the port(s)?

Yes. I have a pretty good understanding of how it works, and sometimes
test/fix things on new (to me) hardware, or when people ask about
specific things.

I plan to do an armhf-64-bit-timet rebuild soon, to provide info on breakage 
and help plan that transition

I will probably be retiring from paid debian work at ARM within a year
or so. Which probably means handing the buildd admin off to someone as
it'll make access a lot easier.

That won't change my debian-arm focus much, but it will probably
change it a bit (away from AI, towards core arch activities and my
personal packages). I'm not sure how much of my current test hardware
I'll get to keep...

did you have a chance to look at it yet? there's quite a substantial
number of packages depending on matplotlib that cant migrate to
testing until this issue is fixed, so we'd greatly appreciate it if
you can investigate it soon.

Hello, I just added some information about this problem on this bug

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1001168#72

it seems to me that this is something related to gcc-11.  If I build matplotlib 
with gcc-10 there is no more crash.

I think that I reach my peter principe with this last effort :))

Hello,

2021-10-02 11:57 Graham Inggs:

Hi

We are doing a roll call for porters of all prospective release
architectures.  If you are an active porter behind one of these
architectures [1] and intend to continue for the development cycle of
Debian Bookworm (est. release mid-2023), please respond with a signed
email containing the following before Saturday, January 1, 2022:

* Which architectures are you committing to be an active porter for?
* Please describe recent relevant porter contributions.
* Are you running/using Debian testing or sid on said port(s)?
* Are you testing/patching d-i for the port(s)?

Please note that no response is required for amd64 because our
toolchain maintainers are happy to support amd64 as-is.

Feel free to use the following template as your reply:
[...]


I have been working on the riscv64 port since 2015 or so, even if the
successful and definitive initial bootstrap only happened in 2018.  Some
people joined from the start and more people joined lately, but I have a
keen interest in pushing this port further :)

Thus, I am an active porter for riscv64 and I intend to continue for the
development cycle of Debian Bookworm (est. release mid-2023).

In the last year or two the contributions were a bit diminished for a
variety of issues (especially in the realm of attending bugs and looking
at specific issues of packages and submitting patches), and will
continue to be this way for a while, but I hope to pick-up pace again
during this development cycle.


For riscv64, I plan to:

- maintain buildds

--- I have set-up or was involved in getting hardware and necessary
resources and setting up most of the buildds of the architecture so
far, and I plan to continue doing this in the foreseeable future

- maintain/provide hardware for (or assist with) automated tests on ci.d.n,
  jenkins.d.n (etc.)

--- I though about doing do this in the past, I think that it's a good
idea to do this if new suitable hardware becomes available, but
there's been scarcity until now.

- run a Debian testing or unstable system on port that I use regularly

- test (most|all) packages on this architecture

--- not sure if saying (most|all) is realistic with the current size of
the archive, but I hope to use regularly the most important
packages by using them on real systems.

The following I will try to do as more time becomes available, and
paying more attention if this port is considered to be supported for
bookworm and becoming a more official architecture (but other people
with interest in riscv64 are also working on these areas):

- fix toolchain issues
- triage arch-specific bugs
- fix arch-related bugs
- triage d-i bugs
- test d-i regularly
- fix d-i bugs/issues


I am a DD.

Thanks for your response!

In case #1000435 (matplotlib crashes on mips64el) is not already on
your radar, would you please take a look?

Please note we don't automatically assume that porters for previous
releases will continue to do so.
If you were a porter for a previous release, we'd like you to sign up
again for bookworm.

Please refer to the architecture requalification page [1] for the
current status.
