Hi, During the final two weeks of GSoC I reworked my guile-2.0 multi-arch patch a couple of times under the guidance of Helmut Grohne, finally resulting in #757591 - "[guile-2.0] Convert to Multi-Arch". Also, I filed more "allow bootstrapping without some of the build dependencies in the stage1 build profile" bugs: - src:highlight - #758418 (build), #758420 (control) - src:shared-mime-info - #758421 (build a new arch-indep package) - src:cyrus-sasl2 - #758461 (build), #758462 (control) - src:libproxy - #758465 (B-D on zlib), #758466 (build), #758467 (control)
I also followed up to a maintainer's question about my proposed patch in #721352 (allow src:ustr to be cross-built) and explained at length how to use Helmut Grohne's rebootstrap tool to, well, bootstrap a new host architecture and, in the process, set up a cross-build environment for testing one's own packages. Well, I guess that's all for the GSoC project, at least during the official coding period. With what I've learned and with the interesting problems I've met, I do believe that there will be more cross-building and bootstrapping patches coming from me. Thanks to both my mentors and the Debian GSoC administrators for their patience with me!
