Hi,
We are adding support for new ppc64le (IBM powerPC Little Endian)
architecture as part of which we are looking at all the packages that
need update.
I was looking at groff(taken from cvs repo) and was failed to build
groff on ppc64le machine because of outdated config.guess.
Latest config.guess with ppc64le support is available at :
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD
Would it be possible for you to spin up a newer version of "groff" with
latest config.guess ?
Alternatively, if you want us to send a patch to config.guess, we can do
so too.
I can help to validate the new release tarball of the "groff" works well
by compiling on ppc64le machine.
I am also attaching the Bug detail in your suggested BUG-REPORT format
in a file named "groff-BUG-Report".
Appreciate your response.
Thanks,
Chandan
