The xrt package has been added quite recently to all series explicitly for the need of enabling the Xilinx platforms for Ubuntu, so it's use is explicitly limited to this usage. So there is no actual risk of regressing any users, or breaking user expectations.
The addition of the amd64 binaries was an accident in the first place and, as mentioned, there is no actual use case for having those around - not to mention the fact that upstream seemed very unhappy that the amd64 binaries have been published. So basically the amd64 binaries here are actually a bug that we should strive to fix, regardless if it means removing packages. So I'm +1 on getting the amd64 arch removed. Also, since this is an HWE related update, I would consider this a rather special case for pulling in new upstream releases. It's not ideal, but since this is all for the enablement efforts, I would say we should consider taking the backport as-is. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1943564 Title: [SRU] Backport xrt 202020.2.8.743-0ubuntu1 to focal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xrt/+bug/1943564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
