Debian puts out call to work on CPU ports |
|
The Debian project has published a number of updates concerning changes and work going into the development branches of the project. One of the changes concerns dropping the /sbin/raw command line program following support for raw block devices being dropped from the Linux kernel. At the same time a call has gone out to developers who are willing to work on less popular CPU architectures: "The Debian release team have put out a call for porters for Debian Bookworm. If you are using any CPU architectures other than amd64 (which has an exemption) such as i386, ARM, POWER or all the less popular architectures, please consider contributing towards popcon submissions, testing packages, running testing/unstable systems, fixing toolchain issues, triaging/fixing bugs, testing/fixing d-i or maintaining/providing hardware for the architectures you care about. If you are already doing these activities or intend to do these activities for particular architectures, please respond to the release team mail with the info
requested by them before January 1st 2022." Information on Debian's many ports can be found on the Ports page of the Debian wiki. |
