Package: musl Version: 1.1.16-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Currently musl has ppc64el binaries disabled, although the code is there.
This bug is to enable ppc64el. The trick thing is to use 64-bits long double, mainly because 128-bits double uses non-IEEE standard which breaks "configure". I am attaching the patch that does this job.
