Bug#758160: gcc-4.9: Please don't run testsuite on sh4



Package: src:gcc-4.9
Version: 4.9.1-5
Severity: normal

Hello!

Like m68k, our buildds for the sh4 architecture are rather underpowered
and complex source packages may take very long to build.

I am currently building gcc-4.9 manually on one of the sh4 builds which
has been going on for more than a week now, mainly due the testsuite
runs taking very long to finish. Coincidentally I saw gcc-4.9 building
on one of the m68k buildds I am hosting and noticed that the testsuite
isn't run on m68k at all, dramatically reducing the build time.

Thus, I would like to ask to have the testsuite disabled on sh4 as
well in order to avoid build delays for gcc packages on this architecture
in the future.

According to Thorsten Glaser, the necessary changes involve setting the
Build-Dependency dejagnu to [!sh4] in debian/control and adding
check_no_cpus := sh4 to debian/rules.defs, but I assume you know much
better.

I would be great to have this changed soon!

Thanks,
Adrian
