Greetings, There is a Fedora team working on putting together a distribution for the little-endian variant of ppc64, variously called ppc64le and ppc64el. They are building Fedora packages to find what works and what doesn't. The gcl package build failed at this point:
End of Pass 1. End of Pass 2. OPTIMIZE levels: Safety=1 (No runtime error checking), Space=0, Speed=3 Finished compiling /builddir/build/BUILD/gcl/unixport/../pcl/gcl_pcl_pkg.o. Loading binary of GCL_PCL_PKG... Loading /builddir/build/BUILD/gcl/unixport/../pcl/gcl_pcl_pkg.o Error: The assertion tp&~tp on line 185 of sfaslelf.c in function relocate failed Fast links are on: do (si::use-fast-links nil) for debugging Error signalled by OR. Broken at OR. Type :H for Help. The failure is due to a reloc of type R_PPC64_REL32, which isn't currently handled. But I wonder if this is going to work, even if that reloc type is handled. Should we pursue fixing the gcl build on ppc64le, or is that a foolish thing to attempt at this stage?
