> In order to avoid retiring FPC (and all the other dependent packages) from Fedora due to the FTBFS issue, we want to temporarily disable support for the failing architectures (aarch64, i686 and ppc64le), leaving only the working ones (arm and x86_64). Once either upstream solves the issue, or we come up with Fedora-specific patches, these architectures can be bootstrapped and re-enabled.
