Dear maintainer,
The ppc64el architecture has been added to the Debian archive. Your
package hyantesite fails to build as reported in bug #727899 and
the build log is available on [1].
It would be very nice if you can upload a fixed version of this package.
Don't hesitate to ask questions if you need help to fix this bug. If
you lack time for that, I can also proceed with an NMU.
It seems that the FTBFS comes from the fact that a shared library
cannot be built. In configure results (standard tests), we can find:
checking whether the powerpc64le-linux-gnu-gcc -std=gnu99 linker (/usr/bin/ld
-m elf64ppc) supports shared libraries... no
Is it normal for this new platform (I think no)? Do you have an idea
where this result comes from (before I look in details)?
The problem is that the libtool snippet included in configure is too old
to support this architecture. That's why using dh_autoreconf would
regenerate the configure script from a recent version.
This bug was supposed to have a patch attached to it, but I just
realized it doesn't have one. Sorry about that. Please find one
attached.
