At F-19 gold we were missing around 233 source packages out of around
13,500 total. These are broken down into a couple of groups:
- Non ARM packages (x86/PPC/s390)
- Languages not currerntly supported on ARM - eg D, a fpc and a few others
- Packages that have issues with their CFLAGS (and actually should be
fine if they used distro flags like they should)
- Random other problems.

I'm planning on going through these again and document the remaining packages.


How do we treat "Desktop" items where the package compiles fine but does not run well without external drivers (the GNOME on ARM conversation earlier ) Or am I misreading that conversation.
