will do


Are you sure you're running 64bits userland on your hosts ?
I thought debian was not supporting it (apart from
http://debian-ppc64.alioth.debian.org/), I see only the powerpc port with the
possibility to install a 64bits libc.

And yes, on a debian sid powerpc chroot the tests pass, but:
$ file gst/.libs/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.14.0 
gst/.libs/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.14.0: ELF 32-bit MSB shared object, PowerPC or
cisco 4500, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped

while I get in 64 bits userland:
$ file gst/.libs/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.14.0
gst/.libs/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.14.0: ELF 64-bit MSB shared object, 64-bit
PowerPC or cisco 7500, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
