Dear Maintainer,

For the ppc64el architecture in Ubuntu, since this package uses libtool, a full
autoreconf is necessary. This is because we need new libtool macros for
ppc64el.

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * Use dh-autoreconf to get new libtool macros for ppc64el.
  * Build-depend on gtk-doc-tools to fix FTBFS while autoreconfing.

Thanks for considering the patch.

Logan Rosen
