FYI, switching to 'meson-build-system' here caused around 120+ more dependency failures on armhf-linux, including xf86-input-libinput, since we've never successfully built 'ninja' on armhf-linux. So, we've essentially just lost graphics support on armhf-linux. Mark ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Unfortunately I don't have access to an armhf machine to try to fix the armhf build of ninja. I suspect that this is going to be an issue going forward, as more packages move to a meson build system. I'm not against downgrading to 1.8.3 in the mean time to keep the packages that depend on libinput{,-minimal} available to armhf users, but it is something that's going to need to be addressed sooner rather than later. -- Efraim Flashner <efraim@flashner.co.il> אפרים פלשנר GPG key = A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted [-- Attachment #2: signature.asc --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 833 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Maybe the safe approach is to revert now so armhf users get graphics back, take time to investigate and fix the Ninja build failures on ARM (surely there are patches floating around on the intertubes), and then reinstate the upgrade. How does that sound? (Note that I’m volunteering, but hey! ;-)) Ludo’. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
