I am experiencing a Fedora CI scratch build failure on i686 arch for gettext with the following "No match for argument: emacs" Below are the test builds of emacs package by removing the ExcludeArch: %{ix86} directive on i686 arch for f40 and rawhide rawhide: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=120538451 f40: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=120539797 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Attempt a scratch build of gettext on i686 arch for rawhide or f40. 2.observe the build failure due to missing emacs Actual Results: The build fails with an error regarding the missing emacs package
+1 Peter, please do not disable i686 just because of a single sporadic build failure. Plenty of packages depend on emacs to build and they now all fail on i686. And it builds just fine... Particularly disabling on a released branch is worse. I plan to revert the ExcludeArch before the mass rebuild tomorrow, though I see it is currently failing on ppc64le/aarch64 for f41.
FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2 (emacs-29.4-9.fc40) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 40. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2
Thank you, Peter! Still wondering if it wouldn't be better/possible to restore i686 in Rawhide now, maybe with a reverted build or something to reduce Mass Rebuild failures on i686.
FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2 has been pushed to the Fedora 40 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates.
I pushed the restoration of i686 builds to rawhide, too. I think it makes sense in principle to permanently drop i686 builds of Emacs, but I think a Self Contained Change would probably be needed to make that happen, and I’m not sure it’s worth the effort.
FEDORA-2024-5c359976e2 (emacs-29.4-9.fc40) has been pushed to the Fedora 40 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report.
