Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 15:41:45 UTC 
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  passwd appears to use an earlier version of 
autoconf, preventing its being built.  This can be fixed in of three ways (In order of preference):

1. Work with upstream to migrate the package to autoconf 2.69.

2. Rerun autoconf or autoreconf in %prep or %build prior to running 
configure.

3. Apply the patch at http://ausil.fedorapeople.org/aarch64/passwd/passwd-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.

TEST ONLY srpm

Thanks for your report.

I'll go with 1, because we are the upstream, and an upstream release to pick up updated translations is likely to happen before F19 anyway.

The new release will happen with autoconf-2.69.  If you want to test it now, attached is a TEST-ONLY srpm (you'll notice a NEVR duplication). It survives a f20 scratch build on the current primary architectures; I'm afraid I don't have access to aarch64 to test it properly.
