This package needs to be in Debian archive in order for Canonical to include in 15.10.

Too late for 15.10 release, deferring to 16.04.

Breno - I am adding this comment to all eServer IO Features for Ubuntu 16.04. This comment applies to all that I have checked as a sample and do not have time to check every feature and add comments individually.

The State and Distro State of this Feature does not appear to be correct. Please review
https://ltc3.linux.ibm.com/wiki/TrackingSUSEReleaseFeatures
as a reference and set the state fields accordingly.

Thanks

I see that genwqe was also requested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1542371 for the s390x architecture. This is now packaged, passed source NEW queue, and pending binary NEW processing. However, on ppc64el it is failing to build from source, because libcxl has not been packaged and without it there are compiler errors generated.

See buildlog linked at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/genwqe/4.0.12-0ubuntu3/+build/9300666

Dimitri,

I understand that libcxl is also on the queue for 16.04.

Looking at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+queue?queue_state=0&queue_text=libcxl

Indeed it has been since 2016-02-16. I shall figure out why it's stalling there.
