Bug#361831: commons-daemon: FTBFS (ppc64): Unsupported CPU architecture "powerpc64"

[Andreas Jochens]

Package: commons-daemon
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

When building 'commons-daemon' on ppc64/unstable, I get the following error:

checking for powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking for powerpc64-linux-gnu-ranlib... no
checking for ranlib... ranlib
*** Host support ***
checking C flags dependant on host system type... failed
configure: error: Unsupported CPU architecture "powerpc64"
make: *** [common-configure-arch] Error 1

With the attached patch 'commons-daemon' can be compiled on ppc64.

Regards
Andreas Jochens
