Re: alberta: FTBS on ppc64el fixed but Sponsor for uploading needed

[Markus Blatt <markus@dr-blatt.de>]

Hi,

Unfortunately, there was another error due to a problem in tdwz with dwarfv5 [3] produced
by default when compiling with clang. I got the error:

dh_dwz
    dwz: debian/libalberta4t64/usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libalberta_1d.so.4.0.0: Unknown debugging section .debug_addr

To fix it we now use the -gdwarf-4 compiler option with clang.

Now the package builds in a ppc64el chroot on my system.
