Dear Maintainer,
Currently this package FTBFS when compiled in new architectures (as ppc64el)
that is not supported on the outdated package autotools files, mainly because
it fails to understand that the new architectures has support for shared
libraries, as shown below:
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c eot2ttf
'/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/bin'
libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c eot2ttf
/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/bin/eot2ttf
/bin/mkdir -p '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/include/libeot'
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 inc/libeot/EOT.h inc/libeot/EOTError.h
inc/libeot/libeot.h '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/include/libeot'
/bin/mkdir -p '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/lib/pkgconfig'
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libeot.pc
'/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp/usr/lib/pkgconfig'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»'
dh_install
dh_install: libeot-dev missing files (usr/lib/lib*.so), aborting
make: *** [binary] Error 255
The full log could be found at
http://ftp.unicamp.br/pub/ppc64el/debian/buildd-upstream/build_logs/logs/libeot_0.01-2_ppc64el.build
I created this patch that call autoreconf to updates the autotool files during
the build, as suggest by the following wiki:
https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS#A2014-01-21_using_dh-autoreconf_during_the_build
I tested it on ppc64el and it worked.
Thank you,
Breno
