[Debichem-devel] Bug#1128132: Bug#1128132: molds: FTBFS with boost 1.90

[Santiago Vila]

Hello.

After I aplied the patch for new boost by Adrian Bunk, this package
built ok again on amd64 and other architectures.

But now it FTBFS on several others where it used to build ok.

∙ ∙ Missing build on armhf
∙ ∙ Missing build on ppc64el
∙ ∙ Missing build on s390x

The error is similar in all cases:

/usr/include/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/openblas_config.h:65:1: error: ‘_Float16’ is not supported on this target

This looks like this issue in OpenBLAS:

https://github.com/OpenMathLib/OpenBLAS/issues/5700

Question for Sébastien (for openblas): Can we expect this to be fixed
in unstable soon? (the changelog only talks about powerpc)

Or should we ask ftpmasters to remove binaries from the architectures
where it does not build anymore, so that the package can propagate to
testing in its current form? (i.e. available for the architectures
where it builds now).

Thanks.
