Tom,
thanks for responding. After looking at the Ubuntu bits, I think that sticking with the
Fedora work that you've already done makes most sense

These are my packages, fwiw. :)
Indeed and many thanks

Might need a bit more than that, iirc. Google loves to do arm specific
versons of code.
Yes, I've discovered more msse specifics in the code. There are some webrt stuff on
the web which look like they have working arm bits that might help

Should work. You'll need the other nacl bits too.
Yes, just not built them yet.

Yeah. I'm not sure if that is sufficient to make it build or not. I'd be
willing to help out there, although, I don't have access to a good arm
build env right now.
I'm sure that I'll find more. I'm in the foothills of what is rapidly
becoming a large mountain range.

I wouldn't do that. It probably won't work. It should be easy enough to
add in the ARM bits. I just never bothered since it takes long enough to
make those packages as-is.
Yes, that's what I'm finding. Someone else somewhere has fixed some of the
problems. I can always ask Mans, he'll helpp.
