Hello, I'm working on the project "Improve one of the Debian MIPS ports" [0]. In few words, the objective of this project is to fix broken packages of Debian port on mipsel, so that the quality of debian in these architectures can be improved.
An online repository with all the relevant files of the project can be found here [1]. Below is a summary of what I did last week: - Opened bug #788323 [2] for package snoopy version 2.3.1-1. The problem was that override_dh_auto_configure use aclocal command from the package automake. The automake was no included in the build-dependencies. I worked on a patch [3] and sent it to the bug thread [4. Unfortunately the Maintainers did not answered me yet. Bug is still opened. - Bug #787862 [5] of package pdf-presenter-console version 4.0.0-1 was built again on buildd and it built fine [6]. I asked the maintainer to close the bug on message [7]. Bug was closed on message [8]. - Opened bug #788680[9] for package openni version 1.5.4.0-12. I investigated the problem during this weak and I found that the upstream does not support the mips architecture. I'm working on a patch. I found the patch for the powerpc arch on a bug [10]. I'm going to use it as guidance. According to the original schedule [0] this week was to focus on fixing bugs. So, we are up-to-date with the schedule. Next steps: - Keep working on bug #788680. - Open new bugs for still broken packages.
