[Pkg-julia-devel] Dec. 14 update

[Sébastien Villemot]

Hi,

I uploaded a new version of Julia based on a Dec. 14 snapshot.

The new MULTIARCH_INSTALL flag in the build system works fine. Elliot,
thanks for your work on that! There is still an issue (minor for Debian
packaging): when MULTIARCH_INSTALL is used, the in-place julia
installation is not usable, because shared libraries are installed under
usr/lib and therefore not found by the dynamic linker. I hit this when
running the tests from debian/rules, so I added a patch
(ld-library-path-for-testing.patch) that manually sets
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=usr/lib when running the tests. I don't know how/if this
can be fixed upstream.

I have submitted pull requests on julia, openlibm and libuv in order to
minimize the number of patches (specifically my pull requests cover
fix-clean-rules.patch and dpkg-buildflags.patch).

Otherwise it failed to build again on arm and powerpc. Seems like it
tries to use non-native asm in openlibm.
