Description Kristoffer Grundström 2011-07-01 23:54:26 CEST

Description of problem: I see Mandriva has this package, but Mageia doesn't. I hope someone can add it. I've mentioned this before in IRC-chat as well & then I got a reply that it was about to become released soon, but what does soon mean?

Setting version to cauldron, because package requests will usually be done for cauldron first and then be available in next stable release

Version: 1 => Cauldron

Hi,

(Asking in several package requests at the same time:)

BugSquad has too few active members to take proper care of package requests, so we need to ask you to check some things yourself.

Please check in http://madb.mageia.org/ whether this package was already imported in cauldron, or whether there's another package with the same functionality that you can use.

If so, then please close this bug report, or, if the package isn't available in Mageia 5, change this report into a backport request.

If it is not available in cauldron, and there is no alternative that you can use, then please confirm that you still need this software.

Thanks,
Marja

Should be fixed with binutils-mips64-linux-gnu in cauldron -- I checked, the linker and assembler in that package claim to support 32-bit little-endian mips target(s).

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
