Summary0001135: can't interoperate amuled and amulecmd on different architectures
Descriptionstoring different statistics depending on architecture is one thing.

However, those statistics are transmitted as-is on the wire, which means it is impossible to get statistics on an amulecmd running on an i386 with amuled running on sparc64.

I suggest either making things 64 bits always (how slow can it actually be, compared to everything else amule is doing ?), or else thinking more about what you transfer before you transfer it.

More broken than I thought... I recompiled an i386 client, and it still doesn't work. Apparently, the people who wrote that part of the code don't understand how network communication works...

Apparently, the person reporting the supposed bug report doesn't understand how to report a bug as well. I am inclined to think the person that wrote this bug report doesn't understand how to use the program, and probably the person that wrote this bug report can't read english by checking the wiki.

The EC protocol is arch-independant and works perfectly between different endianess and bit-size CPUs (as is used by a lot of people, including me). Next time you're going to blame your lack of skills to operate the program on the developers, think twice.

CLosed for lack of input. Shame, it was being interesting.
