Hi,
In light of the recent outdated config.{sub,guess} discussion I have
decided to generate a list[0] of packages that have these files from before
June 2006, which is when the AVR32 architecture was added. The number
of affected packages comes to 620, and obviously filing 620 bugs seems
like the wrong way to go about this. I shall leave it like this for a
while giving people chance to update things, and later, if nobody objects,
I shall start filing bugs for these.
Obviously this is only a 'wishlist' problem, since AVR32 is not an official
architecture, but I'd very much appreciate it if people could fix these so
as to help push the port forward faster. Thanks.
The list was generated using lintian 2.2.9 with this[1] patch. It is
obviously possible that there are false positives in this list since the
files might be not be actually used in the build, or they are copied from
the host on clean etc. Please let me know if this is the case for one of
your packages so I can avoid filing pointless bugs later on, although it
is probably better to either remove/replace these files or override the
lintian error.
Regards,
Bradley Smith
