As part of the glibc 2.28 development upstream plans to change the ppc64le default ABI for
long double from "IBM long double" to "IEEE 128-bit long double", this
change is documented here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/PPC64LE_Float128_Transition
We have a potential problem here in that the required changes may not be ready for
2018-07-11 mass rebuild per the current Fedora 29 schedule:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/29/Schedule
I will keep this ticket updated as we make progress upstream with the work. Upstream may
delay the ABI freeze by two weeks, which means an optimal mass rebuild might be a week
later on 2018-07-18.
To be clear I am *not* requesting any change at this point. I am only providing a heads-up
that there is a potential for a delay here or if it comes to it a complete cancellation of
the float128 transition for ppc64le (which we wouldn't like to see, but there are
deadlines).
