This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle. Changing version to '23'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora23 Would you be able to support MIPS in hawkey upstream [1]? If so, do the pull request, please. [1] https://github.com/rpm-software-management/hawkey/ I can do the upstream support, here's the pull request https://github.com/rpm-software-management/hawkey/pull/107 The hawkey-0.6.0 with MIPS support will be built for F22, F23 and rawhide. |
Created attachment 1051694 [details] Add-support-for-little-endian-MIPS.patch Description of problem: We are trying to bring Fedora to MIPS platform and this requires to add little endian MIPS support to hawkey. Actual results: Current hawkey only supports big endian MIPS Expected results: Both little and big endian work correctly Additional info: Hawkey uses uname to determine the CPU architecture. For MIPS, the result is the same for little and big endian (it is always "mips" or "mips64" which is considered big endian). We need to distinguish between mips/mipsel and mips64/mips64el in order to install correct packages. Attaching a dist-git patch
