Subject: [PATCH] Add a temporary hack to fix installations on ppc64le and
aarch64 (#1764666)
Quoting bug 1764666:
"Currently Rawhide isn't installable on aarch64 and ppc64le,
because we are hitting bug #1722181 again.
The reasons are increased size of TLS in current distro
(resp. in the libs the python interpreter loads for anaconda to run)
combined with internal limitations of TLS support on these platforms.
I talked to the toolchain people and they think it can be fixed,
but it will take some months before the fix is available.
You can read the details in the thread starting with
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-09/msg00512.html,
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25051
is the current plan for a fix.
So to unblock Rawhide on aarch64 and ppc64le, I propose we carry a patch
in the Fedora anaconda rpms, that workarounds the problem. Although the
change is harmless, I don't think it belongs to upstream anaconda, thus
the request for a patch. I have tested the patch thru an updates image
on ppc64le and it makes anaconda run again."
Unfortunately due to how our release process works, it's easier to
temporarily have this patch in upstream rather than to carry it as
a downstream patch for Rawhide.
