I don't think merging is right way to do.  To be honest, I should update
gnuconfig files in automake more often than I've done so far.  That's because
automake brings sources into autotooled distribution tarballs, and those should
be upd2date.

On the other hand, updating gnuconfig files in redhat-rpm-config is something
which is used by %configure, and something which is worth updating once we have
a request for it.

Thanks Panu.

I updated this package.

Also automake which carries config.sub and config.guess around too.
Perhaps these should be combined?!

I'll do the same for automake.  Thanks.

Just go ahead. The reason they were updated three years ago was exactly 
the same: support for new hardware. There hasn't been any demand for 
updating since then I guess :)

redhat-rpm-config config.sub/guess are old

2016-10-13 Thread Richard W.M. Jones

The versions of config.sub and config.guess in redhat-rpm-config are
3+ years old.  I'd like to update these to the very latest versions,
primarily because the upstream versions support riscv64.

Is there a reason not to do that?  I don't want to break something
unexpectedly.

Rich.
