I misread this. Did you mean the patch should have been: ``` # Environment information. DEB_HOST_ARCH ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH) # Build without Altivec to prevent build failures on ppc64el. ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH),ppc64el) DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND += -mno-altivec endif ``` Which I have seen used elsewhere when searching on c.d.n.Now it all makes sense. Thanks for pointing me to the right piece of documentation for it.
