Hopefully we will fix it for the next release; I didn't want to make the switch to readelf in the late stages of a release. d ___ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-le...@notmuchmail.org

This specific issue has now disappeared on both ppc64 and ppc64el, so I guess it was just some toolchain breakage that got fixed in the meantime. > >> - on ppc64 "comparing existing to exported symbols" from >> T360-symbol-hiding fails as well > > This is more-or-less known [1].

Currently the test does not run on macOS, afaik. So it is ok if I just skip this test on ppc64? Or can anything be done about this (I must admit that I have relatively little insight into this)?

Currently the test does not run on macOS, afaik. So it is ok if I just skip this test on ppc64? Or can anything be done about this (I must admit that I have relatively little insight into this)?
