I've just attempted to build mingw-libvirt (which is noarch) in rawhide and was (unlucky?) that it got scheduled on an ARM builder. The build failed with checking build system type... Invalid configuration `armhfp-redhat-linux-gnu': machine `armhfp-redhat' not recognized http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5680000 This is odd because the mingw-libvirt src.rpm has the exact same tar.gz that we use in the native libvirt src.rpm which accepts arm as a build system type. So I'd expect that the configure script is already new enough to work with armv7 hosts at least. Looking to see if mingw-libvirt was ever tested on ARM secondary builders, I can't find any build logs. Querying the noarch.rpm packages hosted on the ARM secondary builder koji host at: http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/packages/mingw-libvirt/1.0.5/1.fc20/noarch/ shows that they were built on the Fedora primary koji instance. Randomly picking some other mingw packages (mingw-libpng and mingw-libxml2) shows they were also all build on x86 hosts and trying a build of them on arm hosts causes the same failure. So am I right in thinking any noarch RPMs were just copied across to the ARM koji as-is, without attempting to rebuild them ? If so, it seems we might have a bunch of noarch packages which are going to turn out to be broken if unlucky to have their builds scheduled on ARM. Side-note, even if the packages worked fine, is it a good idea to allow noarch builds to be scheduled on ARM, given that ARM is so much slower ? It seems we're wasting precious ARM builder cycles, as well as maintainer time, by letting noarch builds go to the slower ARM builders instead of x86 builder hosts. /me goes to play russian roulette triggering rebuilds of the mingw-libvirt package until koji picks an x86 host Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
