Re: I like what Debian is trying to do.
I actually do have to build the entire distribution on a new architecture.
There are currently problems in that dpkg-buildpackage doesn't have a
convenient flag to do a binary-only build, and has some shortcomings in
the area of building large batches of packages. The order in which packages
should be built (and installed) is a non-trivial issue. It follows our
package dependency graph, I guess.
Thanks
Bruce
