The package xdelta fails to build on ppc64el, as on new architectures, because
the config.{guess,sub} files are out of date, and are not updated during the
build.
This is the error log:
dh_install --sourcedir=debian/tmp --list-missing
dh_install: libxdelta2 missing files (usr/lib/*.so.*), aborting
make: *** [install] Error 255
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2
I just created a patch that enables it to be built on ppc64el. I am using the
following URL as reference:

Thank you,
Breno
