[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] Remove architectures marked as deprecated

Thomas Petazzoni thomas.petazzoni at free-electrons.com
Wed Sep 1 09:47:07 UTC 2010


The Alpha, CRIS, IA64 and Sparc64 architectures have been marked as
deprecated during the previous release cycle. They are not widely used
in embedded systems and/or no longer supported by their manufacturers
and/or not properly supported in Buildroot.
