Hello All!<\/p>\n

Hope everyone is doing good, this is my report for the sixth week of Gentoo GSoC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After having a working prefix this week I dedicated on testing packages on prefix for EESSI package set. I also sent quite some time setting up package testing environment on prefix. Also I learned more about Arch testing on Gentoo. I collected all the required packages [1] and then tested them with `FEATURES=”true”` and `tatt` .<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A lot of packages had already been tested and had RISC-V keyword. I have tested the following packages in gentoo repository [2] and [3] and pull requests have been merged as well:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
– dev-util\/hermes<\/div>\n
– sys-cluster\/lmod<\/div>\n
– dev-util\/patchelf<\/div>\n
– dev-lua\/luajson<\/div>\n
– dev-lua\/lua-bit32<\/div>\n
– dev-lua\/luaposix<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Tests were failing for `lmod-8.6.14`, with `lmod-8.5.6` tests passed successfully so only that has been keyworded.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As most of the packages from EESSI overlay have been moved to gentoo repository, there are only major ones left in the overlay.Following patches were added in EESSI overlay:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
– sys-cluster\/reframe [4]<\/div>\n
– sys-apps\/archspec [5]<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There are `sys-fabric\/opa-psm2` isnt needed for RISC-V yet so it has been skipped. There is also `sys-libs\/pam` in the overlay to add pam support to prefix but it wont be further required [7] as I had added a patch in official repository [6].<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The `sys-cluster\/reframe` had a lot of dependencies while testing but all tests passed successfully. The `sys-apps\/archspec` is no more usable as it depends on `<dev-python\/click-8.0` and we have `dev-python\/click-8.1.3` in official repository. So it is being decided whether to bump the version or to use the latest click version, it will be merged soon.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
All the packages except `sys-apps\/archspec` have been keyworded and merged. We can soon test RISC-V for EESSI project. Also all the delieverables are complete, although some work on documentation needs to be done so I will focus more on keywording and documentation.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mentors also coordinated a lot and helped me with EESSI packages and testing. To summarize the report, this week was spend on learning more about testing and keywording packages for EESSI.<\/div>\n
