Package: gaby
Version: 2.0.2-6.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

When building 'gaby' on ppc64/unstable, I get the following error:

UNAME_MACHINE = ppc64
UNAME_RELEASE = 2.6.14-2-ppc64
UNAME_SYSTEM  = Linux
UNAME_VERSION = #1 SMP Sun Nov 27 06:36:32 UTC 2005
configure: error: can not guess host type; you must specify one
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1

This is caused by outdated config.guess/config.sub scripts.

With the attached patch 'gaby' can be compiled on ppc64.

Regards
Andreas Jochens
