Package: sra-sdk Version: 2.0.1-1 Severity: serious Justification: fails to build from source
Charles, sra-sdk builds only on (linux-)amd64 at the moment. Of the remaining architectures, i386 comes closest to succeeding; however, builds there still fail because the packaging specifically expects bin64 and lib64 output directories. On other Linux architectures, the build fails very early because upstream's build system treats them all as i386, passing -m32 (which PowerPC and SPARC are the only non-x86 architectures to support) and -march=pentium4 (which is obviously x86-specific). I'd advise editing build/Makefile.gcc to remove both: -m32 is already the default on i386 (as is -m64 on amd64), and -march=pentium4 yields insufficiently portable binaries. (You can substitute -mtune=pentium4 if you want, but only on actual i386!) Finally, on kFreeBSD and the Hurd, the build fails because upstream's build system doesn't recognize them at all. I'd suggest directing it to treat them both as equivalent to Linux, as they should be close enough for the SRA SDK's purposes. Could you please look into these issues?
