[12:59] <fabbione> cjwatson: no point.. we need another kernel upload
[05:34] <cjwatson> fabbione: fair enough, probably did no harm to NEW it though :)
[06:05] <fabbione> cjwatson: yeah
[06:18] <doko> fabbione: how is the test build looking?
[06:19] <fabbione> doko: i will start it tomorrow morning. waiting Jeff to send me binutils and it's sunday :) i had to take care of my son today
[06:20] <fabbione> i have katie ready anyway
[06:20] <fabbione> it's a matter of few commands to start it
[06:24] <fabbione> doko: do you want to receive the buildlogs via email?
[06:24] <fabbione> infinity: same question for ya..
[07:56] <fabbione> doko: i got a  clean glibc build on ppc. building gcc now
[07:58] <Dvalin> you have kids?
[07:58] <Dvalin> :o)
[07:59] <fabbione> Dvalin: yeps.. one
[08:00] <fabbione> http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/christian.jpg
[08:00] <Dvalin> cool
[08:01] <Dvalin> fabbione: current toolchain for sparc broken in ubuntu?
[08:01] <fabbione> Dvalin: edgy is fine. we are testing for the next release
[08:01] <fabbione> glibc are ok
[08:01] <fabbione> gcc did build but it needs testing
[08:01] <fabbione> that's what i am going to do tomorrow
[08:02] <fabbione> Dvalin: with the niagara i will rebuild a random set of a 1000 pkgs
[08:02] <fabbione> and install them
[08:02] <fabbione> see if nothing obvious break
[08:13] <Dvalin> okay
[08:13] <Dvalin> I had some difficulties tracking your packages
[08:13] <Dvalin> in comparision to our ways
[08:14] <Dvalin> but I haven't had much time to investigate the issue much further
[08:15] <fabbione> tuesday i might have some spare time and i can give you the general directions on how we package/patch
[08:15] <fabbione> that can help you a bit
[08:17] <Dvalin> :)
[08:17] <Dvalin> that would be cool
[08:18] <fabbione> if you still have the installation on the other disk we can use it as chroot to get the tools to unpack and stuff like that
[08:25] <Dvalin> I have it available, been playing with it via chroot some :)
[08:25] <Dvalin> but I'm still puzzled by sparcv8 as default target..
[08:26] <Dvalin> I can see a few reasonings for it maybe, but some of it seems kinda obsoleted..
[09:35] <fabbione> doko: gcc 18ubuntu1 doesn't build on ppc
[09:51] <doko> fabbione: thats on feisty?
[09:53] <fabbione> yes
[09:53] <fabbione> glibc-2.5
[09:53] <fabbione> i took the source from ronne/doko/gcc/4.1/
[10:07] <doko> fabbione: successfully built it on davis:~doko/gcc/4.1, using glibc-2.5 ...
[10:08] <fabbione> try using linux32 dpkg---
[10:08] <fabbione> this is on ppc32 kernel
[10:08] <fabbione> also the glibc on davis didn't pass the test suite
[10:08] <fabbione> this one did
[10:09] <doko> fabbione: linux32 ...  does work, but not on a G4, thats known
[10:10] <fabbione> doko: davis is G5 ppc64
[10:10] <fabbione> my failure is on G4 
[10:10] <doko> if you want to build on a 32bit kernel, you cannot build biarch
[10:10] <fabbione> that's special.. 
[10:10] <fabbione> but ok
[10:12] <doko> I still don't understand what does work and what not. I could successfully build the biarch compiler in the feisty-libc chroot on davis
[10:12] <fabbione> glibc that was built on davis for feisty-libc was without the test suite. That problem has been hunted down to a kernel issue
[10:13] <fabbione> next i did build glibc locally (ppc32) with the whole test suite and it went ok
[10:13] <fabbione> and then i did try to build gcc
[10:13] <fabbione> and it fails
[10:13] <fabbione> as you say it's known but it sounds strange to me
[10:14] <doko> fabbione: it's a failure during the configury of the target libraries, isn't it?
[10:15] <fabbione> Configuring in powerpc-linux-gnu/libiberty
[10:16] <fabbione> looks likw
[10:16] <fabbione> like
[10:16] <doko> yes, so install your new glibc on davis tomorrow and try there again
[10:16] <doko> (or build gcc-4.1 prefixed with WITHOUT_LANG=biarch ...
[10:16] <fabbione> i don't have root on davis
[10:17] <fabbione> i need to ask admins to do it for me
[10:17] <fabbione> ok
[10:41] <doko> elmo seems to be awake ...
[10:41] <doko> fabbione: ^^^
[10:41] <fabbione> doko: yes, but we don't have the kernel yet
[10:42] <fabbione> we need Ben to upload
[10:42] <doko> ahh, ok
[10:42] <fabbione> elmo is NEVER going to run a kernel from my deb... 
[10:42] <fabbione> he can't trust them and that's the same i would do with his debs
[10:42] <fabbione> he needs to get them out of archive
[10:44] <fabbione> good night
