ppc32 Stretch
I have a number of G4 macs. AFAIK they are new world macs but only work
with ppc32. Since ppc32 support was dropped Stretch. I am mostly on
my own. From what I can tell, I can could create my own ppc32 port.
What I think I need to do is:
>Set up a computer to sync stretch's source packages
>Have that computer automatically build those packages.
>Some fanagling is necessary because I will need to update the
debian/control and insert myself as a maintainer for all the
packages.
>Set the computer up to then push all built packages to a live
apt-mirror service.
>Set up all my G4 macs /etc/sources.list to point to my computer,
rather than official debian servers.
>sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-upgrade -y
My G4 macs should then be running debian stretch.
Am I missing anything?
This seems doable, I am just a bit concerned because of the presences
of amd64 specific packages, I fear there are ppc32 specific packages
that will need manual updating. Is this correct? Am I waisting my time?
Cheers!
