Bug#1107581: openblas: Please enable build on alpha
Source: openblas
Version: 0.3.29+ds-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-alpha@lists.debian.org
Usertags: alpha
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-alpha@lists.debian.org
Hi,
openblas is still supported on alpha, so it would be great if the build could
be enabled there. This would enable additional reverse build dependencies on
alpha. Upstream recently fixed a minor bug on alpha as well that I reported [1].
I have attached a diff which patches the Debian package to enable alpha support.
Thanks,
Adrian
