Hi,

Please correct me if I am wrong:
Packagers do not have any real possibility to build and test packages on 
aarch64.
Arm-koji is 32-bit arm.
Packagers (some/many) do not even know their packages are supposed to 
work on aarch64.

I decided to believe the bug report and contacted upstream. It was a 
shame. Aarch64 already supported (and yes, newest upstream tarball in 
f19). To say it shortly and politely, upstream was not happy to discuss 
a non-issue with with someone unwilling to even try the feature he requests.

Spare me such incidents. Pretty please.

How much time passed between discovery and filing of these bugs?

Thank you very much.
