Hi,
Requesting for the loong64 port could be included in the Official lists,
we need to get the pre-approval from ftpmaster first.
Then donate appropriate hardware for the official buildds and
co-ordinate with DSA.
After communicating with ftpmaster / DSA and gradually adopting their
suggestions, we received provisional approval from ftpmaster and DSA.
Thanks for your patience and help.
With Thorsten Alteholz and Aurelien Jarno's suggestion, I should create
a bug to provide a response location, then ftpmaster and DSA can
formally approve it.
The bug will be kept in BTS and everybody can track the introduction of
loong64.
Your opinions are welcome.
No objections from the release team to migrate loong64 to the official archive.
But please note that, assuming it gets migrated soon, we don't promise it will
be in the testing suite in time for trixie.
Also I have a question about packages in -unreleased. I counted around 15
packages in there, including gcc-12. If/once loong64 moves to the official
archive, the -unreleased suite will no longer be available, and those custom
patches from porters are not allowed. So those packages will need to have the
patches submitted to the bug tracking system, or to upstream as appropriate, and
eventually accepted. What's the plan for them? Are there any blockers, or can
those patches be dropped and the official package used?
Cheers,
Emilio
