* Package name : asmc-linux Version : 2.36.11 Upstream Contact: nidud <ni...@hotmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/nidud/asmc_linux * License : GPL-2 Programming Lang: Assembler (amd64) Description : Masm compatible assembler Asmc is a x86 Assembler that supports complex Masm macro syntax. Asmc is written in its masm syntax, so it can't be build in Debian box. asmc-linux has same functionality from Asmc, but its written in GNU assembler. So, asmc-linux can be build in Debian box. asmc-linux is needed to build 7zip. 7zip can be use hand-optimized assembler code for faster operations. Some users wants to use assembler code for that. See also: * https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1090988 * https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1001111 asmc-linux will use for 7zip build, so 7zip maintainer (me and other members) might maintain it. I'm a Debian maintainer, and I can't upload the package myself. So I also want mentor/sponsor for upload. Current state of my asmc-linux packaging can be examine from here. * https://salsa.debian.org/yokota/asmc-linux -- YOKOTA Hiroshi
