Description Jerry James 2022-01-28 17:48:11 UTC
Description of problem:
The mp package failed the mass rebuild on ppc64le (see https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1889533).  The build log indicates that bad constants in boost headers are to blame:

Those constants should have a "ULL" suffix instead of "LL".


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
boost-1.76.0-6.fc36

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build the mp package in Rawhide for ppc64le

Actual results:
The errors shown above.

Expected results:
Good build.

No, they already have type unsigned long long, changing the prefix wouldn't alter that. The problem is that they are initializing objects of type long long.

Comment 2 Jonathan Wakely 2022-01-31 11:37:55 UTC
Fix proposed upstream: https://github.com/boostorg/interval/pull/30

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2022-02-08 20:24:19 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle.
Changing version to 36.
