Aug 1, 20252025-08 monthly summary focusing on delivering cross-architecture capability and build stability for haikuports/haikuports. Implemented RISCV64 build support by switching to a RISCV64-compatible liblayout source and updating revisions. Stabilized builds by marking GCC as broken on RISCV64 and excluding RISCV64 from supported architectures. Managed libxml2 ABI compatibility by disabling 2.14 (and adjusting fontconfig) and simplified xmlto build by removing WebPositive dependency. These changes reduce risk, improve compatibility, and lay groundwork for future RISCV64 enablement.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 monthly summary for haikuports/haikuports. Focused on performance, reliability, and Haiku-specific multimedia tooling. Delivered global build optimizations across ICU, Ruby (upgraded to 3.2.7) with a Ruby parse.c build fix, and optimizations for gzip, p7zip, and SDCC. FFmpeg on Haiku received patches for pthread_setname_np, slicethreads naming, and assembly-enabled builds by default (with GCC2 compatibility maintained). Result: faster, more reliable builds, improved debugging/tracing, and stronger Haiku multimedia capabilities.
