Question: Support any other architecture but x86_64?

[Hellseher]

Hi,

As your project is pesent in Guix package registry now python-sgp4@2.12 Guix tryes to cover a list of target CPU acrhitectures such as:

• x86_64
• aarch64
• armhf
• i586
• i686
• mips64el
• powerpc
• powerpc64le
• riscv64

Currently build on aarch64-linux is failing, did you have a plan to support any of those platfrom?

Thanks.

Looking at the .github/workflows/test_package.yml, I do see an action targeted at aarch64, and it seems to have run successfully before the build broke a couple of months ago:

https://github.com/brandon-rhodes/python-sgp4/actions/runs/3076246484

It will be sometime in December that I can return my attention to the library, but if you wanted, you could try working with .github/workflows/test_package.yml on a fork of your own, and see whether maybe it's not doing as comprehensive a check for that architecture as it should? (Also check: are you using HEAD and so the build is simply broken? Also: did that test exist at the last release? Or did it only get created and start checking since the last release?)

I am focused on a conference talk this week, alas, but hopefully will have more bandwidth for my open source projects!

Hi,

The build has been passed on aarch64-linux v2.14 and new version is available in Guix downstream now.

Thanks,
Oleg
