Sure to be other issues that can be sidestepped > with such an approach. There are only 3 aarch64 build servers, all armv7 jail capable. As stands, they are partitioned for building thus: ) ampere1 that builds for releng/1[34].* quarterly ( arm64 and armv7 ) ) ampere2 that builds for main latest ( arm64 and armv7 ) ) ampere3 that builds for releng/1[34].* latest ( arm64 and armv7 ) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
