Can I get you to try the attached debdiff and upload if it works (I am not an ubuntu developer). I don't have a ppc64el test environment. This should either work or get us much closer.
** Patch added: "krb5_1.14.2+dfsg-1ubuntu1.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1592841/+attachment/4684512/+files/krb5_1.14.2+dfsg-1ubuntu1.debdiff ** Changed in: krb5 (Ubuntu) Assignee: Sam Hartman (hartmans) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to krb5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1592841 Title: FTBFS on ppc64el, blocks updates of all packages depending on krb5, for example CUPS Status in krb5 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: krb5 in Yakkety, version 1.14.2+dfsg-1 does not build on ppc64el and so it does not make it from -proposed into release. This blocks packages which depend on krb5, like CUPS, from getting from -proposed to release, preventing further development on the main platforms (amd64, i386, ...) due to the failure on this more exotic platform. Other packages depending on krb5 and so suffering the same problem as CUPS are: libkdb5, openssh-server, dnsutils, cvs, libkadm5clnt-mit9, libkadm5srv-mit9, libdns162, unity-control-center, libdns100. cjwatson on IRC, channel #ubuntu-release about this FTBFS and a possible fix: I suspect it's due to -O3 Looks like the sort of thing where the compiler does a bit more uninitialised-variable tracking at higher optimisation levels Would probably go away at -O2, or somebody could adjust the offending function to pacify the compiler; either way To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1592841/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
