Thanks for the patch, but you realise this shouldn't actually be a problem
in the version that's actually shipping in _Debian_, right?

Unless I'm missing something, aarch64 support was added to autotools-dev
in Feb 2012, and vpb-driver already has new enough versions for that.


If that's not true, then please do let me know what other version of them
you do need for this.  This patch just hides the problem for Debian, but
I'd much rather fix it for all users with a new upstream release whenever
this sort of thing is needed.  Since then I'll only be bothered by people
reporting bugs against old versions they haven't updated, not people using
the latest version on systems other than Debian ;)


Thanks for the heads up, but please check the current version and let me
know if there's still actually a problem.  I can get a new package out
quickly if there is, but afaics, we're already fine.

  Cheers,
  Ron
