Description Sergio Monteiro Basto 2017-10-01 11:39:29 EDT

After a long wait for fix bug #1196539 (Please ship perl-gettext package on ppc64/ppc64le/aarch64 ) .

Now we have an odd situation fully describe in the end of the bug #1443685

In https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/po4a/commits/epel7 , Till claim that po4a 
is now included in RHEL , I checked with dpkg and failed to build only in ppc64 [1], ppc64le/aarch64 got po4a . 

but the odd situation is that po4a is an noarch package and therefore should be easy to fix . 

The other suggestion is update po4a at least to 0.45 in rhel7-optional as you may notice [2] not even Debian oldstable have po4a-0.44

DEBUG util.py:439:  Error: No Package found for po4a

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=22187180 built successfully

    oldstable: 0.45-1

Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2017-12-02 10:46:22 EST

po4a-0.52-2.fc27 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 27. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-40776a60b5

Comment 3 Lubos Kocman 2017-12-04 06:58:56 EST

Develack+ we still need explicit pm_ack+

Comment 4 Sergio Monteiro Basto 2018-05-11 13:58:38 EDT

po4a is now included in RHEL except in ppc64, even ppc64le/aarch64 got po4a 

po4a is a noarch package, why you can't add it to ppc64 arch ? 

I can't built schroot on ppc64 !

Comment 6 Sergio Monteiro Basto 2018-07-29 05:11:18 EDT

I can't built dpkg on ppc64 !

Comment 7 Lubos Kocman 2018-08-01 08:21:54 EDT

Fixed rpm placement (add to ppc64) in  in https://code.engineering.redhat.com/gerrit/#/c/145765
