#6327 Missing ppc64le builds
Closed: Fixed None Opened 8 years ago by ellert.

Hi!

I submitted an epel7 build to koji and it failed due to missing dependencies for ppc64le:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=12495148

Is there a time schedule for completing the missing package builds? Is there a list somewhere of all the missing stuff and what the status is for them?

I tried to submit a scratch build for the missing package (globus-ftp-client-8.27-1) to see if there was something wrong with it. This also failed due to another missing package (globus-authz-3.11-1). I then submitted a scratch build of that package - which succeeded, so it looks like there isn't anything broken just missing builds.

Interestingly, there are ppc64le builds of older versions of the missing packages: globus-authz-3.10-2 and globus-ftp-client-8.25-1 - but not for the latest versions currently in epel. So the packages are missing the ppc64el build root. I didn't look through all the packages I maintain, so there might be more affected.


There are more missing ppc64le builds from the same update:

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2015-dbfe52f67a

In addition to the 2 missing builds mentioned above also these packages are missing the ppc64le build:

  • globus-gass-copy-9.18-1
  • dpm-dsi-1.9.5-13

My suggestion would be to bump the release and rebuild again the packages where ppc64le build is missing. But adding Peter to CC for more official answer as he has been rebuilding the globus stack for ppc64le in EPEL-7.

This is of course an option. I don't think it is a very good one though. I would prefer to have the ppc64le packages built from the version already in EPEL if possible.

Besides, I still would like to have an answer to the question about where I can find a list of all missing ppc64le builds. Clicking through all packages in koji to see what is missing is not scalable.

OK, I have bumped release and built, even though I do not consider this the best solution:

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2016-290cbc1746

Until this update is stable there will be broken deps in the ppc64le repo.
