[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#727311: abinit: update config.{sub, guess} for the AArch64 port

[Matthias Klose]

Package: src:abinit
Version: 5.3.4.dfsg-3
Severity: normal
User: debian-arm at lists.debian.org
Usertags: arm64

The package fails to build on arm64 (aarch64-linux-gnu), because the
config.{guess,sub} files are out of date, and are not updated during
the build.  If possible, please do not update these files directly,
but build-depend on autotools-dev instead, and use the tools provided
by autotools-dev to update these files.

  - For dh, call dh --with autotools_dev (yes, underscore).

  - For other rules files, call dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig before
    calling configure (in the build or configure target), and call
    dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig before calling dh_clean in the clean
    target.

After the build on any architecture, and before a clean, a grep for
aarch64 in the config.sub file(s) should print some lines.

The full build log can be found at:
http://people.debian.org/~doko/logs/arm64-20131023/logs/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-arm64.abinit_5.3.4.dfsg-3build2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt
The last lines of the build log are at the end of this report.

Please note that these build were done in an Ubuntu development,
environment there may be a few false positives in these bug reports.
