Bug#835851: add MIPS r6 support in dak
Package: ftp.debian.org
X-Debbugs-CC: guillem@debian.org, debian-release@lists.debian.org
We are working on MIPS r6 support, which are different ports with MIPS ones.
They include mipsr6, mipsr6el, mipsn32r6, mipsn32r6el, mips64r6, mips64r6el.
Theses ports have been supported by `dpkg' in sid/testing,
while not in stable yet.
When try to upload packages to dak, it rejected these packages whose
`Architecture: ' list contains these new ports.
What should we do to make dak support these new ports, ASAP,
so we can feedback patches now.
It seems there are 2 options:
1. backport `dpkg' in sid to stable, and ftpmaster team install that
package into dak machine
2. backport archtable/cputable changes into `dpkg' in stable and upload it to
jessie-updates with help of release team.
Which one is acceptable or better option?
