Hello maintainers! I'm glad to announce that the native s390x builders are now available in Fedora Copr production. Seems everything works, so we also added the 'epel-8-s390x' and 'epel-9-s390x' chroots. Note that the builders are hosted in IBM Cloud, Tokyo, so the connectivity between builder and the rest of the Copr stack (North Virginia) might be a bit slower (or behave differently). Ditto for RPM repositories that are not mirrored. Overall, this is an early attempt so please be patient and report issues: https://pagure.io/copr/copr/issues Happy building!
