Package: libtool
Version: 2.4.2-1.3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
Upstream libtool/config received a patch that adds a new ppc64le architecture.
Debian is a target operating system to support this new architecture, so, we
need
that patch as part of Debian.
I'd like to have this patch on Debian, because libtool will not have a newer
version soon,
so, I suggest keeping the backport on Debian until there is a newer release.
The upstream patch can be found at the following link:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git/commit/?id=29900d3bff1ce445087ece5cb2cac425df1c2f74
