Well, what I've already said from some experience and research. Where's the POWER and S390 support? All I saw is x86 and arm. We've heard there's ppc64le compatibility support anyhow, which is rising up my list to investigate for work. Who's going to do bioinformatics on Blue Boxes? Bioinf causes enough trouble on x86... There's been an issue for bowtie2 for years, and I've long had it in copr, though it probably needs updating there. Has someone done the unresponsive maintainer thing for Adam Huffman (who is, or was, back more in that area)? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
