Compilation failure

We have a setup to compile epoll library for ppc64le. It worked up to Netty 4.1.63.Final and tcnative 2.0.39. Trying to compile it now with Netty 4.1.66.Final and tcnative 2.0.40 I get:

successful compilation of tcnative

The file that exists in maven repo is netty-tcnative-2.0.40.Final-linux-ppcle_64-fedora.jar - I guess os name suffix is not added somewhere in netty pom…

[chrisvest]

The way our build does this is that it sets the tcnative classifier directly, like:

./mvnw -B -ntp clean install -Dio.netty.testsuite.badHost=netty.io -Dtcnative.classifier=linux-x86_64-fedora

[morvael]

Had to add manual configuration of tcnative.classifier to both projects’ (netty-tcnative and netty) compilation scripts instead of just one.
