I'm starting to prepare for the armv7hl koji builders... a few thoughts: - I don't think we can have builders that do both armv5tel and armv7hl, because the mock environment is populated with packages from outside the chroot (i.e., mock populates the directory and then does the chroot). Thus, any scriptlets will execute in the wrong environment. This should be a rare occurrence, but since hardfp and softfp happily link together and *do the wrong thing*, we need to avoid this scenario. - We haven't planned to do multiarch for arm, but it might be desired in some contexts, particularly if proprietary software is available only with a particular ABI (e.g., Flash in softfp only?). Multiarch might also permit builders to do both armv5tel and armv7hl. I think the cost (effort, storage space) probably outweighs the benefits but the discussion is worthwhile. - It would be really nice to get ld patched so that attempting to link hardfp and softfp would produce an error, instead of silently producing undefined results. - I'd like to build F15 on both armv5tel and armv7hl at the same time, i.e., submitting to a.k.fo.o with a target of dist-f15 will kick off a build on both variants by default (like 32-/64-bit builds on other archs). To this end, Paul Whalen is looking at putting together an armv5tel seed package set that matches the emerging armv7hl seed package set as closely as possible. -- Chris
