Please enable armel and armhf for my ppa https://launchpad.net/~tuxpoldo/+archive/btsync

Asked by Leo Moll

I just read statements here https://dev.launchpad.net/CommunityARMBuilds. My builds will take less than 10 minutes and generally I will have no more than 10 builds per month.

I've enabled armhf, but we don't routinely provide armel PPA builds. ARM build resources are relatively scarce, and not many people are still using old releases on armel.

Hi William,

thank you so much! I think this will satisfy the request from many users and represent a huge improvement. I have no idea, how many users would really need armel, but I will see the feedback and tell you. In any case one more information: the packages in this PPA do not require any compilation - that's the reason why the build time is so short. Just in case this may convince you also to activate armel ;-)

Today I uploaded a new version, but the PPA seems to build only i386 and amd64.

Hm, weird. I've reenabled armhf; can you try again?
