Packages libklibc and klibc-utils missing for sparc64 on p.d.o
Hi all,
I today wanted to check if a new libklibc package is available for
sparc64 that includes the fixes by James. I'd like to get my SPARC
machines into a working state again. :-)
But unfortunately the libklibc and klibc-utils packages are no longer
available for sparc64 as per packages.debian.org (see for example [1]).
I believe I saw them around 2017-12-31, as I upgraded them on my Ultra
80 on that date, but maybe I'm mistaken.
[1]: https://packages.debian.org/sid/libklibc
As [1] also lists the corresponding packages for the unofficial ports
alpha, hppa, ppc64 and others I wonder why sparc64 should be missing
there. [2] lists only sparc and not sparc64 but that file wasn't changed
recently IIUC. Hence I wonder why the packages were listed end of
December 2017 but are gone now.

UPDATE: After checking the download path of the libklibc package for
ppc64 and adapting it to sparc64 I was able to find the packages (on
[3]), but still, shouldn't the klibc packages not also be listed on
packages.debian.org?

Cheers,
Frank
