Maybe its time to work on the Lua language of Guile =F0=9F=98=80 Our copy of luajit supports aarch64 so I don't think that's a problem. (Last I checked) Debian has a patch to replace powerpc support with 64-bit ppc support. I'd go ahead with the change if that's the direction that neovim is going and let the powerpc64le people decide between using lua5.1 or just removing lua support on a per-architecture basis for ppc64le. --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --aNuwSXMYclTOvD/j Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEoov0DD5VE3JmLRT3Qarn3Mo9g1EFAmCFFysACgkQQarn3Mo9 g1FvZw/+LTD9ki8jsulECycMPg4i7JJp/9qm5PmO94A3IUFPmkSbnH+SGCfTg80R njuYU+IlNMrVHp4tbqhWUTUGv9GjOdVdp9FhMiIiAisKD6V/6F/WNxLywCPfDGDr YwyviQaSmk4n/asZBf4U/KOfh8CG3R7tPzk5fSb0lAtBjAwIxerGG6SMMRo5SeGl WcM+tF92xiIjQ98t/6/lVbTZOzJgv8dV5yF/lThlpvWUEFDrWM710JyF5JtnqD9O hb5IvHbrsE55Jbk6LQA2VPt26ul6+v8cOzSBAByPu9dx5wPaus9Dxtvavj1whsOZ bEGPBMBbkSTx4nRTurzJyn/mSspBXORtGnhqS9wMCQkl8Y6PkxZ0+qMCx72/hzRL Zt7NSVnAOkMegO1Ks7e8BoAGX2ZOtJ9qdkBbdni664MH1fslkbIpLWH2AroEOi4O FqawFrrFvPGxpJDjbTPMKzU3kzVmewfA5pE3QQvBTGO3E5gGd1HXDxqGS/Jz77e+ N2Wr038P2c3X6lWz7MHbUnza3H93AaNDyCh8O8aJPxvUJToV1giVifzxqNwyejWn eBVi5Y/DI6BQP8WZEmBcK1ihUqnA5fZVO9/7xlD9DtHp8p/yUUDz81DgXpIAVNai p+UYcYyXZckjrS+NAV1t05P8YZg94UaHD4llacRUXZrwyv7CQts= =MHP2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --aNuwSXMYclTOvD/j--
