Architectures/AArch64/F21FTBFS

This page lists packages which failed to build for AArch64 (so called FTBFS which means 'Failed To Build From Source').

Failures

• python3-cairo
  • issue is rather in cairo itself as it fails in testsuite
    • Peter told that will take care of it

• hdf:
  • image done, need to discuss with upstream
  • upstream response:

   Thanks for the offer! If we need that I'll let you know.
   Hopefully we can get access to this platform. 

• gccxml
  • fails to build for aarch64
  • code is based on gcc 4.2.1 ;(
  • reported upstream: http://www.gccxml.org/Bug/view.php?id=14919
    • no need to worry about it for now
    • blocks: CableSwig
    • gcc aarch64 config does not cleanly backport to 4.2; upstream will likely need to forward-port to 4.8+ (yselkowitz has a diff of the gccxml-specific changes on top of 4.2.1)

• openbabel
  • 3 tests fail
    • same on ppc64: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1094513
    • reported upstream: https://sourceforge.net/p/openbabel/bugs/927/

• eclipse

• coq
  • documentation generation fails
