Summary: Request to spin up a new version of pcre with ppc64le
support
Product: PCRE
Version: 8.34
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Code
AssignedTo: ph10@???
ReportedBy: chandand@???
CC: pcre-dev@???
Hi,
We are adding support for new ppc64le (IBM powerPC Little Endian)
architecture as part of which we are looking at all the packages that
need update.
I was looking at “pcre” (from repo:svn co
svn://vcs.exim.org/pcre/code/trunk pcre and pcre-8.32 as well) and was failed
to build “pcre” on ppc64le machine because of outdated libtool.
We have worked with libtool maintainer to get alpha source release that
has all the needed bits to support building on ppc64le. A stable release
is expected soon.
You can pick up the libtool alpha source release from either of the
below :
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.gz (1.6MB)
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.xz (920KB)
Would it be possible for you to spin up a newer version of
"pcre" which would support ppc64le? by using alpha libtool
release?
I can help to validate the new release of the "pcre" works
well by compiling on ppc64le machine.
Appreciate your response.
Thanks,
Chandan
