Re: epics support for powerpc64-linux

As always, Andrew has the right and simple solution.

It works flawlessly:

 

ifc-1420a:~/EPICS/epics-base$ export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=linux-ppc64

ifc-1420a:~/EPICS/epics-base$ make -j17

Heinz, have you tried doing just

$ export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=linux-ppc64
$ make

and if so where and how did the build fail?
