Hi, until the toolchain is fixed, the only options are ExcludeArch:
ppc64le or just stop doing work in rawhide. I decided to leave
rawhide's WebKitGTK vulnerable to the worst security issue we've seen
in years [1] rather than exclude ppc64le, because removing WebKitGTK it
would take out the entire desktop on ppc64le, and I trust our GCC
maintainers are working to fix ppc64le expeditiously, but I totally
understand other maintainers aren't so willing to wait. It will be easy
to reenable ceph for ppc64le once GCC is working again.
Well, the consequence of making that choice in this case was to prevent
*other people* from doing work in Rawhide (unless they also disable
ppc64le, which I don't want to do since we do actually *use* os-
autoinst on ppc64le), so it doesn't seem like a straightforward one :D
