This is the relevant portion of the proposed patch:

 >  ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH),ppc64el)
 >  DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND += -mno-altivec
 > +DEB_CXXFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND += -mno-altivec
 > +endif
 > +# Build without Altivec to prevent FTBFS on ppc64el.
 > +ifneq (,$(filter mips64%el mips64%el,$(DEB_HOST_ARCH)))
 > +DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND += -mxgot
 > +DEB_CXXFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND += -mxgot
 >  endif

But the explanation is:

 > filter mips%64 mips%64el,$(DEB_HOST_ARCH)
 > is due to we may has some other mips64 architectures in future,
 > for example: mips64r6{el}.

The filter string differs between the patch and explanation:

filter mips64%el mips64%el

and

filter mips%64 mips%64el.

One is twice the same (typo?), the other has the percent sign placed 
differently.

Please confirm the correct filter command, otherwise I cannot apply this 
patch.

Thanks,
Ghis
