Thank you in advance! ** Description changed: + [Justification] + lsvpd is a package specific to IBM POWER hardware. It is built for Ubuntu's powerpc and ppc64el architectures. However, the version in Ubuntu 14.04 lacks full support for running on a little-endian host (ppc64el); and because powerpc is a 32-bit host OS its usage on IBM POWER servers is minimal. This is a hardware-enablement SRU to fix behavior of lsvpd on ppc64el. + + [Test case] + Proper functioning of lsvpd to be confirmed by IBM. + + [Regression potential] + The new upstream version of lsvpd consists of endianness fixes, build system changes, and miscellaneous bug fixes. The current package is of minimal utility on powerpc and is known to not work on ppc64el. Risk of regression is negligible. + == Comment: #0 - Naveen N.
