Hi Boruch, We are adding support for new ppc64le (IBM powerPC Little Endian) architecture as part of which we are looking at all the packages that need update. I was looking at libhdate (from repository https://svn.code.sf.net/p/libhdate/code/trunk and libhdate-1.6.02 as well) and was failed to build libhdate on ppc64le machine because of outdated libtool. We have worked with libtool maintainer to get alpha source release that has all the needed bits to support building on ppc64le. A stable release is expected soon. You can pick up the libtool alpha source release from either of the below : ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.gz (1.6MB) ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.xz (920KB) Would it be possible for you to spin up a newer version of "libhdate" which would support ppc64le? by using alpha libtool release? I can help to validate the new release of the "libhdate" works well by compiling on ppc64le machine. Appreciate your response. Thanks, Chandan |
