Package: iaxmodem
Version: 1.2.0~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: autoreconf ppc64el

Dear Maintainer,

Since autotools_dev is wrongly invoked in debian/rules file, config.{sub, guess} files are not getting updated, which is required for new ports.

In order to avoid FTBFS "iaxmodem" source package on ppc64el arch, config.{sub, guess} files need to be updated. We have also successfully verified building "iaxmodem" source package on ppc64el build machine after applying attached patch.

Thanks for considering the patch.

-ravindran.

This email closes autotools/autoreconf in packages that have 
successfully been built on all current release architectures.

debhelper defaults to updating autotools files since January 2016,
which automatically fixed many of these bugs and makes explicit
updating for these packages obsolete.

debhelper compat 10 defaults to running autoreconf,
making manual adding of dh-autoreconf mostly obsolete.
Updating to compat 10 is a better solution than adding dh-autoreconf, 
and compat < 10 is expected to become a lintian warning before buster.
