Port added to debian-ports infrastructure during the weekend

["Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo" <manuel.montezelo@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Sorry to not be more verbose or communicate earlier, basically all
spare time is dedicated to get things up and running, and sometimes
updating info would need an almost immediate retraction because some
things did not work as expected the first time.  Mostly smooth
overall, though.

So basically packages from the arch are now added to debian-ports, and
there are buildds busy building packages.  We're prioritising the ones
needed for having basic systems, so we expect that people can start to
use "debootstrap" and be mostly successful.  If not, please report
and/or fix if possible :)

You'll need qemu-system, from upstream at the moment, and a kernel +
bootloader.  Some people are creating those and putting them in
people.d.o, hopefully they'll see the email and reply in the thread.

How to help?  Well, the usual cycle of looking at what's broken when
building packages and try to fix them, be that upstream support,
changes to Debian packages, fixing FTBFS of packages in all arches,
etc :)


Cheers.
