[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#1002629: kicad: Please enable the build on powerpc and ppc64

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

Source: kicad
Severity: normal
User: debian-powerpc at lists.debian.org
Usertags: powerpc ppc64

Hi!

The portability of kicad is limited to the architectures supported
by the embedded version of libcontext. It turns out that powerpc
and ppc64 are actually supported [1] and I have verified that kicad
builds fine on both targets.

Thus, could you please whitelist powerpc and ppc64 in the Architecture
field in debian/control?

Thanks,
Adrian
