Package: file Version: 1:5.17-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Usertags: ppc64el
Dear Maintainer, I am working to enable ppc64el architecture on the package "file". It fails to build from source, since a bunch of configuration files need update, which are not entirely covered by autotools-dev. That could be handled by using dh-autoreconf instead. Thank you for considering the patch. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: ppc64el (ppc64le) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-powerpc64le (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
