Description Florian Weimer 2017-09-15 07:58:56 UTC
We need to remove glibc-arm-hardfloat-3.patch because it obscures ABI problems on armhfp.  But we can only do so after the fpc package has fixed its ABI (bug 1491788).

Comment 1 Florian Weimer 2017-09-15 10:36:00 UTC
On the F27 branch, the EABI support was removed in glibc-2.26-6.fc27 and re-added in glibc-2.26-8.fc27.  I do not plan to drop it again on that branch.

On the master branch, the removal happened in glibc-2.26.90-3.fc28, and EABI support has not yet been reinstantiated.  I'm waiting for guidance from the FPC and armhfp maintainers with suggestions how to proceed there.
