<tt>Hi,
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> We are in the process of adding support for new arch
'ppc64le' (powerpc 64-bit Little Endian) and I was looking at
building "</tt>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
<tt>erlang</tt><tt>" package on ppc64le environment and found that
"erlang" package require a patch to multiple config.guess files
found in the erlang release tarball.
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>Fortunately , automake >=1.13.4 has all the needed bits
to support building on ppc64le arch.
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>We would like to request you to upgrade "automake" in your
build machine to >=1.13.4 and spin-off a new version of
"erlang" and let us know the new tar availability. So that we can
test it on ppc64le architecture for you.
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>the release tarball that we picked is from "</tt><tt><a
href="http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R16B03.tar.gz"
style="color: rgb(0, 85, 170); text-decoration: none;">http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R16B03.tar.gz</a></tt><tt>",
which doesn't have the ppc64le support.
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>Your response is highly appreciated.
</tt><tt><br>
