Why not?

Where you differ from stock Fedora 9, did you do anything to get your
changes/patches be applied on F-9 and devel branches in cvs?

Is the ia64 Everything repo complete compared with the other arches?

the "beta" was accidentally left in from the beta release notes. This
is the final GA version of F9 for ia64.

This is the first "secondary arch" release to be available and we are
still working out how to do things. I expect by F10 we should be
releasing within a day and hopefully with all identical package versions
as the primary arches.

All changes we needed for ia64 are in Fedora CVS so there are no special
ia64 patches floating around for ia64.

Not quite, I think we have about 98% of the packages building on ia64.

Back at F8 I think we had about 80% or so. Also F8 was built completely
from SRPMs outside of koji with hacked up scripts. We now build under
koji/CVS just as the primary arches except for ours is a separate koji
server. There has been major progress over the past 6 months.

Hm, why is the URL so different from the primary architectures? Mirrors
choose which architecture(s) they want to carry already; it's presumably
not to make the mirroring easier? Wouldn't it be better to have it the
same as the others?

Well, partly because it's not on Fedora's master mirror.

Gulp. That's even worse...

Well, it's somewhat intentional - there is/was a lack of space
for it on the master.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but you mention that there are
builders on that IA64 page, but I don't see any option to build (eg
Rawhide packages) against IA64 in Koji.

Build for ia64:
$ koji --weburl=http://ia64.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji
--server=http://ia64.koji.fedoraproject.org/kojihub
build --scratch dist-f10 some.rpm/cvstag

Build for sparc:
$ koji --weburl=http://sparc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji
--server=http://sparc.koji.fedoraproject.org/kojihub
build --scratch dist-f10 some.rpm/cvstag

At least, that's what I did when fixing build failures on these
architectures that I got emails about.

You should have configs for secondary architectures in $HOME/.koji. They
are created by current version of fedora-packager-setup, I think.
