Bug#879884: RM: virtualjaguar [armel armhf] -- ROM; FTBFS
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: debian-sparc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: sparc64
Hi!
Please remove virtualjaguar for armel and armhf from unstable
as the package currently fails to build from source on these
architectures.
The reason for the FTBFS is that the Qt maintainers switched
the GL version from Desktop to ES2 which means that some C++
definitions are not available. Unfortunately, the virtualjaguar
package needs some of these definitions as it currently supports
Desktop GL only.
The reason for the switch is that most armel and armhf hardware
only implements ES2 GL so that most GL applications run without
hardware acceleration.
The upstream developers of virtualjaguar are planning to support
ES2 GL in the future, but since that will most likely take a
while, I am requesting to drop the package for armel and armhf.
Thanks,
Adrian
