[Bioc-devel] Build error for CaDrA package on kunpeng2 Linux machine

[Hervé Pagès]

Hi Reina,

Note that CaDrA results on Mac ARM64 are also affected: 
https://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-mac-arm64-LATEST/CaDrA/

See Martin Grigorov's blog post here 
https://blog.bioconductor.org/posts/2023-06-09-debug-linux-arm64-on-docker/ 
for how to debug Linux ARM64 related issues on a x86_64 host.

Note that different architectures use slightly different floating point 
arithmetic with slightly different precision. This can affect the 
results of your numerical calculations. The degree to which they are 
affected will vary greatly depending on what calculations you perform 
and how you perform them. So it's important to implement things in a way 
that tries to minimize the impact of these variations as much as possible.

Best,

H.
