xine-lib build failure on sparc buildds
Hello,
I noticed that the new version of a package I maintain (kaffeine [0])
isn't making it into sarge because it won't build on sparc. Digging
deeper revealed that it was libxine-dev (source xine-lib) that was
holding it back. The last three versions, 1-rc4-1 [1][2], 1-rc4a-1
[3][4], and 1-rc5-1 [5][6] all failed to build on sparc.
rc4 fails oddly, but rc4a and rc5 both fail because of messages like
this:
/tmp/cccD7qb8.s:522: Error: Illegal operands: There are only 32 f
registers; [0-31]
My sponsor, Riku Voipio (I've been waiting for an AM since 07-17), said
it looked like a binutils bug... don't ask me though :)
One thing I'm confused about is why kaffeine isn't listed as waiting for
xine-lib on [7]. Maybe I just don't fully understand how the buildd
system works. If any of you cares enough about xine (or kaffeine :) to
look into the situation and see if there's an easy fix, I'd love it.
Please CC me as I'm not on the list.
