HI All,
To document this before I forget.
In the brief meeting we discussed the current status of F-15 on ARM for both armv5tel and armv7hl (ie soft and hard float). The current status in rough order of dependency requirements is as follows:
1) patches and fixes required to rpm / yum / mock / koji [1]. We need to get fixes in for these so that we can build hardfp in the usual Fedora build method. dgilmore has patches for some of these and has said he'll file bugs for all components and reply to this mail with the details so that its all documented and other people can follow up so he doesn't block esp with his other release manager hat on.
2) build all packages required for a koji builder in mock from the same srpms plus deps in mock and create appropriate repos 2.1) hardfp (armv7hl) 2.2) softfp (armv5tel)
3) koji rootfs for both armv7 and armv5 based on the mock packages
4) seneca to configure new devices or reconfigure existing build farm for both hardfp and softfp builders
5) rebuild package set from 2 entirely in koji
6) rebuild F-15..
there's parts of both 1 and 2 complete but in particular we need to get all the bits from 1 upstream.
Cheers, Peter
