MIPS specific patches needed
- binutils: needs MIPS support code
- device-mapper-multipath: needs MIPS support code in kpartx header file
- filesystem: we have /lib32 and /usr/lib32 in N32 systems
- gc: libatomic_ops included in gc needs MIPS support code
- gdb: needs MIPS support code
- gmp: needs ABI patch
- gnupg: needs MIPS support code

- libaio: needs MIPS support code
- libatomic_ops: needs MIPS support code
- libgcrypt: needs MIPS support code
- mesa: no WMB defined for MIPS
- mpfr: needs MIPS support code
- numpy: no MIPS CPU defined in GA version
- openssl: needs MIPS support code
- ppp: /lib32 and /usr/lib32 should not be used, we only have one ABI
- redhat-rpm-config: support of mips architecture in rpmrc added
- rpm: support of mips architecture in rpmrc added
- SDL: SDL_config.h hasn't consider MIPS
- systemtap: needs MIPS support code
- tcp_wrapper: weak_symbol compile error, need #include <tcpd.h>
Feature disabling
- curl: disable valgrind
- gcc: build without cloog, ppl, multilib
- pstoedit: disable libEMF
- vala: disable devhelp
- xorg-x11-drivers: disable drivers that wont be used on MIPS
Java issue
Some packages can't be built with java support as we don't have OpenJDK yet
- avahi
- bison
- ca-certificates
- ecj: bootstrap
- gettext
- graphviz
- java-1.5.0-gcj: need bootstrap = 1
- setools
- tetex-tex4ht
- tzdata
MONO issue
Some packages can't be build with MONO support as we don't have MONO binaries yet
- avahi
- gmime
Compile time / build parameter issue
- allegro: remove timidity++-patches dependency, timidity++-patches can't be built in MIPS
- glibc: consider mips64el architecture as well
- pciutils: consider mips64el architecture as well
Test bug
- bash: unknown issue in %check step, skipped
- elfutils: tests always fail. disable test
Disabling -Werror needed (compiler issue?)
- gnome-power-manager
- metacity
F12 GA version not working, need update, not MIPS specific
- clutter-gtk: missing dependencies on gir-repository-devel
- gobject-introspection: compile option issue, fixed in F12 update RPMs
