Source: firefox Version: 138.0.1-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: debian-ppc64@lists.debian.org Usertags: ppc64 X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org Hi, the firefox package fails to build on ppc64 since it tries to use lld which does not support PowerPC ELF v1:
Is that a big issue? I got the impression Debian PPC64 was ABI2 only? It's just that when I found my new Debian install crashing it came down to an ABI issue. As soon as I used an ABI2 kernel my problems went away. System, apt and all other binaries started working. When I checked the vmlinux 6.12.17-powerpc64 kernel from Debian GNU/Linux 12.0.0 "Sid" - Unofficial ppc64 NETINST 20250316 on the net installer it was ABI2.
