• LoongArch architecture added to Debian Ports

    From John Paul Adrian Glaubitz@21:1/5 to All on Wed Aug 16 10:30:08 2023
    Hello!

    I am happy to announce that we have added the LoongArch architecture to Debian Ports
    meaning that the port has been added to the Debian Ports archive mirrors as well as
    the wanna-build infrastructure.

    After an initial manual bootstrap of roughly 200 packages, two buildds are now building
    packages for the newly added "loong64" port with the help of qemu-user. After enough
    packages have been built for the port to be self-hosting, we're planning to replace these
    two buildds with real hardware hosted at Loongson.

    The packages can be found in the "pool-loong64" directory on the primary Debian Ports archive
    mirror [1] while the current archive build progress can observed on buildd.debian.org [2].

    Developers interested in joining the LoongArch porting efforts, are encouraged to reach out
    to the Debian Ports team via the #debian-ports IRC channel on Libera.

    Cheers,
    Adrian
