Hello. I've got bugreport that Erlang doesn't work on EL6
PPC64
achitecture.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958953
I don't have resources to fix this issue, and nobody volunteered
to fix it so far, so I'd like to limit Erlang, and Erlang
applications and libraries on EL6 to x86/x86_64, where they works
for sure. It's not the only issue with Erlang and PPC64 - it also
has limited support for Java which prevented Erlang-Java bridge
from being built successfully. Reducing Erlang on EL6 to
architectures where it works even allows me to drop one patch and
remove a couple of ifdefs from spec so this will simplify things a
bit.
Is there any documentation which describes the process of package
removal from a particular EL hardware branch? -- With best regards,
Peter Lemenkov.
Your best bet would be to add ppc64 to the ExclusiveArch on erlang,
rebuild it, get it pushed to stable, then the broken deps would make
it clear what packages were descended from it (and can also be patched
then to exclude ppc64).
