The #gentoo #sparc builders are disabled for now because the worker had become a little too unstable.

We hope to get it back soon because it is doing a lot of builds for #Sourceware projects.

Interesting program to analyze binary data, I have a sensation that I am going to love it and you should check it out too:

Trying to install #gnupoke, since #WSL doesn't work with snaps, I'm trying to get there with

`sudo apt install tcl-dev libmonoboehm-2.0-1 libjson-c-dev`

But I still get "configure: error: can't find the Boehm GC library. Please install it."
