Multiarch/Crossbuild/Bootstrap/Toolchain minisprint -- Wookey
Speaker: Wookey
Discussion of the state of Multiarch, Crossbuilding, Bootstrapping, and Cross-toolchains in Debian. There has been good progress in these areas recently, but numerous issues remain, such as Multiarch dpkg/apt/aptitude inconsistencies, cross-dependencies, and how Cross-toolchains in the archive should look. Not everyone is interested in all of this so the session will be spit into chunks: 11:00 Multiarch 13:00 Crossbuilding and bootstraping 15:00 Cross-toolchain packaging Agenda: Multiarch things: * Multiarch (not!) in Policy * dpkg/apt/aptitude inconsistencies * cross-dependencies * bootstrapping-related issues * embedded interpreter problem Agreement on the correct interpretations of some things is needed: 1) if a package foo with arch:A depends on bar:any where bar is m-a:no and arch:A, is that dependency satisfied? 2) Do we accept https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/InterpreterProposal? If not what should we do instead? 3) Should we declare 666772 (apt cross-build-dep handling should be liberal with Arch: all packages) wontfix officially (and document corollary) ? Crossbuilding: General roadmap - what still needs doing? Feedback from users on what we have so far is very welcome. * Cross-dependencies * Multiarching more packages * toolchain support packages * Cmake crossing - state? * Using build profiles * sbuild issues * Documentation Bootstrapping Followup from Helmut's talk on Monday. Cross-Toolchains gcc-5 uses -cross standalone packages gcc-4.9 uses wdotap multiarch packages * Everyone happy with standalone packages? * Should cross-toolchains be multibbed? * What set of toolchains should be pre-built in the archive? * What about toolchains not provided as binaries? Cross-gcc source-generator OK? * What ancilliary packages are needed? Full details in gobby document on gobby.debian.org in the path debconf15/bof/Multiarch-Crossbuilding-Bootstrap-Toolchains
