Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: important

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for "ck"

 * Package name    : ck
   Version         : 0.6.0-1.4
   Upstream Author : Samy Al Bahra
 * URL             : http://concurrencykit.org/
 * License         : BSD-2-clause
 * Vcs             : https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/ck.git
   Section         : libs

It builds those binary packages:

  libck0 - Concurrency Kit - shared libraries
  libck-dev - Concurrency Kit - development files

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/ck

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this
command:

  dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/ck/ck_0.6.0-1.4.dsc

Changes since the last upload:

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Explicitly set the platform option when building for armhf
     rather than rely on the configure script's autodetection.

I'm doing another nmu for ck, as the previous one (0.6.0-1.3) failed to
build for armhf [1], preventing migration [2]. Build failure occurs
because the configure script fails to autodetect the platform, for no
apparent reason.

That problem didn't exist in previous builds and also doesn't happen
when building -1.3 in ubuntu [3] for any architecture, armhf included.
The changes made in -1.3 didn't involve the configure script in any way.

[3] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ck/0.6.0-1.3


Thank you!

The cause is the armhf buildds running on 64-bit hardware (just like i386
runs on amd64 for more than a decade).  This wouldn't be a problem if the
upstream configure script asked eg. the compiler, but instead it checks
"uname -m" which is never the right thing to do.  On my test box it says
"armv8l" which is not on ck's list.


Meow!
