Well, the longer we spend on it, the more time we're going to have to spend re-analyzing libraries in the archive to identify ABI breaks as things drift. And my proposal in Debian has been to kick this off when trixie opens. So I do think it's better for us to move forward. We definitely don't want our dpkg-buildflags to differ from Debian's on this for any significant amount of time. > Do you think the necessary people are convinced on the Debian side to land > this early in trixie or is there still more arguing to be done there? We still don't have a definitive agreement on what to do with i386, but I think that will shake out once we have a dpkg-buildflags implementation to discuss. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
