[Bug 1485311] [NEW] Fixing FTBFS - is separate section on arm64 still necessary?

 

Public bug reported:

I was reading http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/fixing-ftbfs.html when I
noticed the following:

"Ubuntu has added arm64 as a architecture recently, but many packages
fail to build on it. A full list of the packages not building are at
qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/arm64.html."

First of all I noticed that the url wasn't a link, but after browsing to
it I found a list of build failures for 14.04. Now that armhf and arm64
are listed on the main FTBFS page (http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/), I
wonder whether this paragraph is still necessary or whether it could be
removed.

Version: 0.3.7~bzr578~ubuntu14.04.1.
