Thank you for that. However, it would be really good if we could get some written down plan with maximum amount of time it takes till we are in normale operation mode.Things have become better, I'd like to thank you for that.
Full ACK ! Carlos, you did an outstanding job!
There are still more issues with hppa popping up than with other architectures, but the general direction looks promising. For this reason, we have decided that we try to avoid the additional burden of packages getting out of sync, and keep hppa in our list of "normal supported architectures" at this time. We are only able to keep it this way if the good work continues, the switch to ntpl happens etc etc - I definitly hope it will work out well.
That's great. Thanks Andreas! Helge
