<![CDATA[Dev1 Galaxy Forum / Devuan builds for GNU Hurd amd64]]> https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=7727 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 12:44:55 +0000 FluxBB <![CDATA[Devuan builds for GNU Hurd amd64]]> https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=61142#p61142 Note that the Devuan build pipeline now has begun to include GNU Hurd OS (hurd-amd64) as target architecture for forked packages.

Thus, if you are using GNU Hurd amd64 from debian-ports you may now add the following sources.list lines so as to include Devuan's forked packages as "overlay"/"overrides" in the package collection:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/devuan ceres main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/devuan ceres main

Of course, the hurd-amd6 architecture has been added very recently and although there is not a huge number of packages it will take some time to get them all built and published. In fact some packages might also be held back if they require special care and additional effort for porting to this architecture.

We also would like to add the remark that, given that the Java 15+ jre is not yet available on hurd-amd64, the first hurd-amd64 build host has been added to Devuan's Jenkins build pipeline by means of an amd64 "proxy sibling" that provides the required Java remoting agent support on a shared directory, and it performs the building actions via ssh into the hurd-amd64 build host. Anyone interested in particulars on that should make themselves known at IRC #devuan-dev (at libera.chat).

Further discussions relating to GNU Hurd OS (hurd-amd64) may be had on libera.chat IRC channels #devuan-hurd and #hurd.
