Fedora-ARM Package Building and Troubleshooting
= Fedora-ARM Package Building and Troubleshooting =
Project Description
The Fedora-ARM project is building Fedora 13/14/15 for the ARM architecture. As this proceeds, various problems arise. For example:
Some packages fail to build for ARM. They can be fixed up to build successfully on ARM, or if that's not possible, marked as unsuitable for ARM (ExlcudeArch). If a group of packages is built to work with a specific version of a library, and a newer version of that library replaces the older version, then the packages that rely on that library can break. This can often be remedied simply by rebuilding the broken package; in other cases, patches are required
