Packaging ASTER for various CPU types #13

Closed V-Z closed 1 year ago

V-Z commented 1 year ago

Hello, I package ASTER for openSUSE Linux and I get failures for less common CPU architectures like i586, PPC64 etc. Standard x86_64 and ARM64 are fine. Do I get it correctly, that ASTER is not supported on these CPU types?

chaoszhang commented 1 year ago

You are correct. ASTER is designed for HPC Nodes. We choose to sacrifice portability for scalability.

V-Z commented 1 year ago

Perfect, thank You. RISC-V 64 might be worth of considering in the future. As x86_64, ARM64 and zSystems s390x are fine, I don't have any real issue, just I inform that I'm packaging Your SW. :-)

I agree. RISC-V could be the future. But unfortunately, it is not a part of Github CI right now.
