Hi,
I have been receiving daily emails about linbox and sagemath broken,
but am kind busy lately. I just checked it out, and the root problem
appears to be fflas-ffpack that needs fixing first, then linbox and then
rebuild sagemath.
Actually, I fixed fflas-ffpack in git on Sep 23. The problem is that
"make check" segfaults on ARM, due to the now well-known "atlas
segfaults on ARM" problem. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1011648. There has been
no news posted to that bug, nor to fedora-devel-list, so I don't know
who is working on fixing atlas on ARM, nor when we can expect a fixed
build. I see that the maintainer disabled checks for the atlas
package to fool the build system into thinking it had built
successfully. I don't know what the point of that was. It still
leaves packages like fflas-ffpack broken.
Does anybody know what progress is being made towards getting a
working atlas package on ARM? Thanks,
