| rtg | infinity, I pushed a patch to drop powerpc-smp and powerpc-e500mc in anticipation of Ubuntu removing support for 32 bit powerpc. I assume that is something on your todo list for the installer(s) ? | 15:05 |
|---|---|---|
| rtg | for Zesty, of course | 15:06 |
| apw | rtg, doesn't that announcement imply we are dropping the whole of 32bit powerpc architecture ? | 15:08 |
| rtg | apw, given tha I am completely unfamiliar with powerpc, what you're saying implies Ubuntu has no 64 bit big endian user space either | 15:10 |
| apw | right, they are all kernels in the 32 userspace | 15:31 |
| rtg | apw, so there are some 64 bit aplications that can run in a 32 bit user space, right ? I found that a bit confusing when trying to figure out what we actually did support. | 15:34 |
| rtg | so we can stop building any powerpc kernels for Zesty. | 15:35 |
| apw | i believe that will be true, but i guess we don't do anything till the arch is gone in the archive | 16:02 |
| rtg | apw, I'll drop that patch then. | 16:03 |

| infinity | rtg: Unpush that. | 16:43 |
| infinity | rtg: powerpc should maintain the status quo until we drop *the entire arch* (ie: stop building it). | 16:43 |
| infinity | rtg: Ahh, I see you and Andy reached the same conclusion. | 16:44 |
