Laziness: since there are no useful features or important bug fixed, there is no need to update it :slight_smile:

Please go ahead, zevv is very open to PRs!

just a heads-up:

the centos vault for armhfp and aarch64 7.6 is also populated :+1:
meaning the (ultimate) release-lock should work for arm too :wink:

Always a bit concerned whether we can reproduce on arm, especially 32bit. :thinking:

Without to much toughs wat we need, does it work…etc, this builds on armhfp/x86_64:

Regarding this, we also need to ship a kernel module as binary package for nDPI.
Is nDPI currently supported in the ARm build? If not, we can safely change nethserver-ndpi architecture from noarch to x86_64, otherwise se should try to find a work around.

No we have not an because on arm we use different kernels, some may (like me) build/use a custom kernel to support their device, it is not maintainable. Same thing with Asterisk (dahdi linux)…

In the past I kept track of the nethserver-packages (and their dependencies) who actually are supported on arm. Hench I occasionally notice the old obsolete packages…

Maybe a item on the 7.7.1908 todo-list subcategory nice-to-have is actual white-listing of noach’s for arm ? :sweat_smile: cc/@davidep

I force push all the time on the wip-branches :innocent:

I see there are more “BuildRequires” in your branch: are they really needed for ARM builds? Should I try to merge them in x86_64 or to add some %ifdef?

24

As said I did not really give it much thought, first time it did not build due to missing requirments.
then i’d just “pasted” this in:

I hope 1.9.4-3, we are waiting 2.0, but I do not think we will have it

Trying to upgrade to 7.7 1908 but I am not having luck with getting my server to upgrade

We are working on it, the release is not ready.
If you want to test it (without any support):

yum update --enablerepo=nethserver-testing nethserver-subscription
signal-event software-repos-upgrade
