Hello.

I received this report from the Debian Bug system.

The proposed patch would indeed fix the bug in the Debian package, but
the package would be still unbuildable from source on any other Linux
distribution on the new architetures.

So: Would be possible for you to release, say, version 0.8.1,
containing just autoconf/automake/libtool updates?

That would simplify my work a lot.

Thanks.

Subject: Bug#746299: tre: Fix FTBFS on new architectures (as ppc64el)

Package: tre
Version: 0.8.0
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ppc64el

Dear Maintainer,

This is a patch that enable the tre package to use autoreconf in the build
process. This patch enables new architectures, as for example, ppc64el,  and,
as I understand, remove the need to have the config.{sub|guess} inside the
package. I understand that you can remove the
debian/patches/99-config-guess-config-sub patch as well.

I am also wondering if this patch fixes bug  #699631. If so, feel free to dup
this bug. 

Thank you,
Breno Leitão
