Dear SQLite developers,

The newest released version 3.9.2 of sqlite-autotools ships with an old 
version of autotools. In particular, it fails to compile on this system:

$ uname -a
Linux sardonis 3.19.0-15-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 16 23:32:13 UTC 
2015 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux

with this error from ./configure:

UNAME_MACHINE = ppc64le
UNAME_RELEASE = 3.19.0-15-generic
UNAME_SYSTEM  = Linux
UNAME_VERSION = #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 16 23:32:13 UTC 2015
configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one


This problem can be solved by re-autotoolizing with up-to-date 
autotools. The build on ppc64le succeeds after doing that.


Jeroen Demeyer.
