<civodul>not many patches showing up these days

<civodul>wake up! :-)

<civodul>a package a day keeps the other package manager away

<jmd>civodul: All the easy ones have been done.

<civodul>LibreOffice anyone? :-)

<davexunit>that's a big one

<civodul>yep, the biggest

<civodul>it depends on OpenJDK IIRC

<jmd>I've had several attempts at gnucash.

<jmd>and the final issue with octave I haven't yet solved.

<davexunit>openjdk isn't packaged yet, is it?

<civodul>it's the second biggest ;-)

<civodul>and it's a pain

<civodul>jmd: we can attempt collective debugging here or on the list

<civodul>mark_weaver: does Binutils 2.24 still need the loongson patches?

<mark_weaver>civodul: no. the same patch is already in binutils 2.24 (although from a different person, interestingly)

<mark_weaver>civodul: oh, sorry

<mark_weaver>civodul: one of the patches is no longer needed. but the other one still is.

<civodul>ok, i'm checking

<mark_weaver>binutils-loongson-madd-fix.patch is no longer needed

<mark_weaver>binutils-loongson-workaround.patch is still needed.

<civodul>damn, now libbfd is not installed by default, and if you insist, it's installed, but in an obscure directory

<civodul>a little bit crazy IMO

<civodul>(given that the library has been stable for ages)
