<br>
I have noticed that the ppc64 build for a Go package I co-maintain failed [1] with the following error message:<br>
<br>
[…]<br>
go build <a href="http://github.com/google/stenographer/blockfile" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">github.com/google/<wbr>stenographer/blockfile</a>: no buildable Go source files in /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/obj-<wbr>powerpc64-linux-gnu/src/<a href="http://github.com/google/stenographer/blockfile" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">github<wbr>.com/google/stenographer/<wbr>blockfile</a><br>
[…]<br>
<br>
while all other supported archs are unaffected and build fine [2]. Any ideas? I can reproduce the issue on <a href="http://pizzetti.debian.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">pizzetti.debian.org</a>.<br>
The only thing that struck me as out of the ordinary is that the package in question uses C components and the ppc64 build seems to be missing support for cgo. At least /usr/lib/go-1.7/pkg/linux_<wbr>ppc64/runtime/cgo.a seems to be missing? (Maybe I’m way off here…)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think you're right.</div><div> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
If that is indeed the problem I’d be happy to remove ppc64 from the list of supported archs.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Sounds sensible to me. FWIW, I think the ppc64 port is basically dead upstream, so if you don't care about it, I don't think anyone else will very much...</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>mwh</div></div></div></div>
