[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#754399: libexif: please use autoreconf to build on new architectures

[Fernando Seiti Furusato]

Source: libexif
Version: 0.6.21-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-powerpc at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ppc64el

Dear Maintainer,

The package libexif fails to build from source on ppc64el, because
configuration files, in addition to config.{guess,sub} need to be
updated.

Using dh-autoreconf instead of autotools-dev does the work and the
package builds successfully.

Please consider the patch attached in order to do so.

Thanks!
Fernando
