Is 'ppc64' an official port yet?

Why does this patch add a new config file rather than referring to
powerpc/config and powerpc/config.powerpc64?

No, not 'official' port now.
However, considerable parts of the environment for ppc64 port still remain in 
the packaging system.

Well, I used the same files as powerpc port for the time being.
I think that the same file should be indicated if it is necessary to be managed 
as the same one for easiness.
And I also think that a different file should be indicated if the possibility 
to be managed as another file is left.
This may be likely to discuss it.

I didn't mean 'is it a release architecture'.  Well, I found the answer:
 does list ppc64.

It would still be possible to override config options.  But I think
ppc64/powerpc64 should be the same as powerpc/powerpc64.  (Just as
amd64/amd64 is the same as i386/amd64, and sparc64/sparc64 is the same
as sparc/sparc64.)

Ben.

Please try the attached patch.  This avoids the duplication of config
files or rules in debian/rules.real.  It also uses the flavour name
'powerpc64' rather than 'ppc64', matching the name used on powerpc.
This should make any future multiarch transition for powerpc users a
little smoother.

Ben.

Thanks for your patch.

I tried it, and I confirmed it to be no problem.
I attach the full patch that I tried.
