--- Begin Message ---Source: dbacl Version: 1.12-2.1 Severity: normal User: [email protected] Usertag: arm64 This package failed to build on arm64. Here is the buildd log: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=dbacl&arch=arm64&ver=1.12-2.1&stamp=1408669610 The problem appears to be out of date autoconf files (config.sub and guess). It is one of many packages which need autoconf updates in order to build on new architectures (such as arm64, mips64el, ppc64el and or1k). 'Autoreconf'ing is the recommended way to deal with this problem in Debian, as it works now and in the future, and ensures packages remain buildable from source. This page ( https://wiki.debian.org/Autoreconf ) contains information on this issue, and details for maintainers on how to update your packages: The arm64 and ppc64el porter teams are working hard to get these new architectures ready for jessie, and time is short, so do please try to fix this issue promptly. Unless the autofoo in the package is way out of date, it's often trivial to do. Please ignore/close this message if it is in error, and accept my apologies for the noise. It may have already been fixed, or a new upload done since the list was generated. Also the automated checks for characteristic log messages can sometimes produce false positives, despite our best efforts. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash

--- Begin Message ---dbacl has now successfully been built on all architectures. debhelper defaults to updating autotools files since January 2016, which automatically fixed many such bugs and makes explicit updating for these packages obsolete. debhelper compat 10 defaults to running autoreconf, making manual adding of dh-autoreconf mostly obsolete. Updating to compat 10 is a better solution than adding dh-autoreconf, and compat < 10 is expected to become a lintian warning before buster. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
