We've been doing well in the two main archs, i386 and amd64. And as I
mentioned last time, armel is built. lpia is now built also. There are also
daily CD images for these archs (lpia is alternate only).
The kernel/libdrm problem on powerpc got fixed last weekend and most of KDE
Core is built on powerpc now. All the central node packages are built, but
some of the leaves remain. There is a decent chart at:
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/DependencyGraph
to given you an idea of which these are.
The kernel/libdrm mismatch on ia64 was fixed earlier in the week and sparc and
hppa were fixed yesterday and today, so I'm starting to work on those. So I
expect that soonish ia64 and sparc will be in good shape. Due to a bug in
Launchpad's Soyuz build system, kdebindings can't be built on hppa, so until
that's resolved we will only get so far.
I'm sure I got all of Main and some of Universe requeued for power pc but
there may be universe stuff that I missed. I looked for stuff I knew about, but
for stuff in Main there are tools that produce actual lists. If you've been
following anything in Universe, you might want to check.
If you've been ignoring the stacks of build failure messages that you get
after every upload, please dial back your ignoring. Lpia, armel, and power pc
should be in good shape, so if something goes sideways on these archs, please
look into it.
Once I've got sparc and ia64 built back up, I'll let you know.
