Dear Maintainer,
For the ppc64el architecture in Ubuntu, since this package uses libtool, a full
autoreconf is necessary instead of just config.{sub,guess} updates with
autotools-dev. This is because we need new libtool macros for ppc64el.
In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
* Use dh-autoreconf instead of autotools-dev to also fix FTBFS on ppc64el by
getting new libtool macros (still updates config.{sub,guess}).
* Use automake's "foreign" option to fix FTBFS while autoreconfing.
Thanks for considering the patch.
Logan Rosen
