In RDO Austin BOF meeting, I have proposed to rebuild RDO packages for ppc64le. And a few discussions have been carried over since then. Now with the power builders up and running
The goal is to rebuild RDO packages for ppc64le in CBS. And we will start with Mitaka release as it is a recent stable release. And one of the idea was to
1. create a new tag (cloud7-openstack-mitaka-candidate-ppc64le?)
2. import all 'noarch' builds from cloud7-openstack-mitaka-* tags
3. send all required packages to the builder
4. test resulting packages for installation & function validation (via ci pipeline?)
5. import/merge all of them to propose cloud7-openstack-* tag
I think we need to proceed with this work without touching x86 tags until it is ready for merge. I have experience building the packages with local mock build environment,
but i may need help to initiate that build work in CBS. Any comments/suggestions are welcome.
