Seriously?
Heh - no... :-)
Copy&Paste mistake.
For a ach not in Debiani/a arch which will probably never come
back to Debian given even HP stopped selling/supporting it?
Don't believe so.
Well, at least hppa is still alive in debian-ports (like e.g. alpha as well).
And we are pretty up-to-date to current debian:

libreoffice fails to build because of this error during configure stage:
configure: WARNING: You are building 64-bit binaries but the JDK /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java is 32-bit
configure: error: You should pass the --with-jdk-home option pointing to a 64-bit JDK
Error running configure at ./autogen.sh line 266.
That is also the same on the kfreebsd-amd64 buildds, but only the experimental
ones...
Yes, my patch is against experimental.
I hope to get the issues resolved before libreoffice reaches unstable.
The attached patch fixes this. The problem is, that on the hppa architecture we still only
support 32bit userspace (although this 32bit userspace can run on a 64bit kernel).
The configure scripts in libreoffice assume we are 64bit userspace and as such expects a 64bit JDK which is wrong.
The attached patch moves the hppa platform down to the 32bit platforms.
I assume that there are one or two further patches needed for hppa (The source is still compiling since a day so I can't tell exactly yet)...
Well, it was available for hppa once, but probably, yes.
Still compiling :-)
