Bug Description

Failing tests:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ruby2.7/2.7.4-1ubuntu2/+build/22064162

Lowering the optimization to -O2 or -O1 doesn't help
Falling back to gcc-10 and still using -O3 lets the tests succeed.

A workaround was applied to ruby2.7 which is now using gcc-10 to build only in ppc64el. Due to that, I am setting the priority of this bug to low.

The workaround seems to enforce other packages which builds with ruby to apply similar workarounds for ppc64el. Example:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/marisa/0.2.6-5ubuntu1

So I can think it's motivated to raise the importance of this bug.

For Jammy this should be fixed in the short term since we will be transitioning to ruby3.0 and I believe we will not need this workaround applied to ruby2.7. However, this might be an issue in Impish if we need to SRU any ruby package which builds an extension.

Sounds good. Thanks for clarifying.

FWIW, I've verified that the Impish ruby2.7 package still fails on ppc64el when built using GCC 11. We don't ship ruby2.7 on Jammy anymore, so I'm targetting this bug to Impish.

Meanwhile impish reached it's end of life,
and since the next newer Ubuntu release that is in service as of today (jammy) picked up a ruby version 3.0~exp1
I think that this bug is no longer relevant
and I'll close it (as Won't Fix for impish, and Fixed for the project due to newer ruby versions now available).

If one objects, please let me know and we can re-open or open a new bug.
