Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 16:20:17 UTC

Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  smokeping 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/smokeping/smokeping-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.

Requested upstream to update to autoconf 2.69:

Subject: smokeping: please update to autoconf 2.69 for aarch64 (ARM 64-bit) support

Hi Tobi,

Fedora is being ported to the new ARM 64-bit architecture and this 
requires the newest autoconf 2.69.  Can you please update smokeping 
(and your other software I suppose) to use autoconf 2.69?

Thanks,                                       
Chuck

Alternative 2) was already in use in the %build section of this package.
