The last published ppc and ppc64 stages (even autobuilds) are from March 2017, and still contain gcc-4.9. This gcc does not build recent glibc releases (>=2.26) anymore.

Okay I took care of this, but I didn't follow past practice so I'm ccing Jorge who may be able to shed light. Here's what I generated: stage3-ppc-20180505.tar.bz2 <- profile: default/linux/powerpc/ppc32/17.0 stage3-ppc64-20180506.tar.bz2 <- default/linux/powerpc/ppc64/17.0/64bit-userland There are two older versions in the mirrors: stage3-ppc64-64ul-20150115.tar.bz2 <- old ppc64 64bit-userland stage3-ppc64-32ul-20160316.tar.bz2 <- old ppc64 32bit-userland I know we are maintaining the distinction between ppc64 arch + ( 32bit vs 64bit ) userland, but I'm not so sure how important that is. You can start with stage3-ppc-20180505.tar.bz2 on ppc64 and switch arches from there. So my question is, should we drop stage3-ppc64-64ul and stage3-ppc64-32ul and keep my stage3-ppc64, or vice versa. Jorge any comments?
