gnu: request: ppcle: Add gnu icecat for powerpcle

[carlosgonz0]

I will do a good donation for adding .deb gnu icecat for PPCle cpu.

[carlosgonz0]

Any news for this? i started using power9 cpu and trisquel on.

I finally got around to fixing the builds for ppc64le (it's up now on the OBS repo). Can you try it out and let me know if it's working for you?

ooo thanks, i will testing.

[carlosgonz0]

I still testing... because my raptor can not boot with a dedicated radeon gpu, so i guess it is because it need a blob firmware so of course I am not going to install blobs then using the built-in gpu. .. I will come back here to report icecat-ppc work.

again thanks.

Icecat crash when booting...

Seems JIT issues, however in recent firefox version 115+ there are JIT improvement for ppc64le. However Trisquel Abrowser work OK in ppc64le so i not sure what is going on in icecat.

Thanks.
