[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#774047: pnp4nagios FTBFS on arm64, outdated config.sub/guess

[peter green]

Package: pnp4nagios
Version: 0.6.24+dfsg1-3
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

Usertags: arm64

Your package FTBFS on arm64 due to outdated config.sub/guess. This is a 
regression and arm64 is now a release architecture hence the serious 
severity.

Version 0.6.19-1 was the last to build successfully on arm64,  Versions 
0.6.24+dfsg1-3 was the first to fail on arm64, the intervening versions 
were not built on arm64 due to bug 769696.

It looks like you switched to using --with autoreconf in your package as 
an alternative to manually updating stuff. Unfortunately autoreconf only 
updates config.sub/guess if automake is used and your package seems to 
be one of the handful that uses autoconf but not automake. So it is 
still nessacery to use another method to update those files. The 
reccomended one being the "autotools_dev" dh sequence and the 
autotools-dev package.

Debdiff attatched, no intent to NMU.
