rebootstrap status update for Loongarch
Hi, Helmut
as you mentioned, missing upstream status, I want to update below, and
my fork[0] is updated.
another purpose of this email is asking for help.
status update:
1, Linux: I will send patch to debian-kernel once dpkg name is settled.
2, glibc: https://salsa.debian.org/glibc-team/glibc/-/merge_requests/15
3, libxcrypt: https://salsa.debian.org/md/libxcrypt/-/merge_requests/5
4, jemalloc: https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/pull/2146 , request Debian to update, and nghttp2 pass.
5, guile: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2022-11/msg00002.html
6, gcc, binutils: need help, I don't know how to submit a patch to Debian toolchain-team, don't accept a poll request.
7, m4, diffutils: need help, I don't know where is correct upstream[1][2], the patch[3][4] is for generated files, but Debian source has these files, thus how can I submit these patch to Debian source? these two packages don't have VCS.
8, newt: need help, build failed without python. cdebconf and base-passwd are skipped.
9, gmp: pass with manuall cross_build action, need help.
10, libffi: need help, I don't know how to submit a patch to debian libffi, no VCS.
