If we publish bins, it should be release profile instead of release-small. It made diff larger...

    needs: [ min_version, deps ]
+    permissions:


As far as I understand the "build_makefile" jobs are test jobs. The "build" job at line 627 already has "permissions: contents: write" and already has one line for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.

Are you trying to publish files from the build_makefile job instead of from the build job so that you can get libstdbuf.so compiled with feat_external_stdbuf? Or why not use the build job?

Should it not rather be something like this in the publish job around line 534?

matrix: job: - { os: ubuntu-latest, target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, features: feat_os_unix } - { os: ubuntu-latest, target: aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, features: feat_os_unix_gnueabihf, use-cross: true }

x64 individual bins are published by reusing compute_size:. libstdbuf.so is also one of a reason to publish from here.

Ofcause I'm considering to merge jobs for publishing (and deduplicating release build). But currently, I can't.

(We should stop/merge duplicated build for compute_size:)

I think that in order to change what gets released it would be good to have approval from @sylvestre . Can you please open an issue regarding the addition of individual arm binaries to the releases to discuss this?

Actually, I just don't want to discard bins with release build (not interested in arm).
Cross-build for FreeBSD might better since Linux-arm coreutils is already published.

As far as I know, 99,999% of users will get uutils coreutils using their package-manager, and the distros like freebsd will use the source code of uutils coreutils and compile it themselves and not use the binary packages. So I am not sure it is useful to publish individual binaries for arm or freebsd? What is the use case? That is why I suggested to create an issue to discuss it.

Package manager does not provide binaries from main branch and most distributor provides single binary.
