Subject: Golang in PPC64
So I am getting the following becasue arduino-builder is a golang
project and apparently Go is not in ppc64 repos. Do anyone know if
golang will eventually be available on this arch?
Unfortunately realistically(maybe more pessimistically?) speaking never.
In more details it will be available(via packaging macros/guidelines) in two cases, either
Fedora ppc64 support becomes Power8+ and someone implements Cgo support for Power ABIv1 in
GC (aka Golang) or in second case someone will volunteer to do initial push for switch to
gcc-go(read porting,...) and will commit to do whole distro support(resolving build
failures,...) for it in-definitively.
Of course you can on your own switch to gcc-go explicitly on ppc64, it should work in its
way(but I haven't checked on it in a while).
If not, is it correct to put BOTH BuildArch: noarch and ExclusiveArch:
%{go_arches} in the arduino spec file so it will not be built for
arches where golang is not available?
I believe this is only reasonable way Exclude/ExclusiveArch. Jan correct me if I'm
wrong.
