I am halting any kind of work on archlinux, parabola and pacman due to:
* Archlinux not giving a shit about aarch64 and actively blocks any kind of development for it
* ArchLinuxArm not replying to me and evidently removing my issue from their bug tracker about it
* Parabola, because Denis 'GNUToo' Carikli is keep kicking me from an IRC for no fucking reason
* Pacman is a trash package manager which source code should be put on a flash disk and thrown into a fire which would be a major help to address replication crisis in the computer science

The unfinished work that would provide a full compatibility of Parabola and ArchLinuxArm with all sunxi boards that currently builds a functional u-boot for OLIMEX Teres-A64 and can be easily adjusted to build other sunxi boards is provided on gist.github.com/Kreyren/97eef2

The preliminary ArchLinuxArm image for OLIMEX Teres-A64 which is using a hotfix with armbian u-boot, bootloader, kernel and kernel modules (due to lack of parabola's compatence to implement the required infrastructure) is provided on git.dotya.ml/kreyren/teres-a64

Fuck you arch and fuck you GNUToo
