Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 00:13:31 UTC 
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  compizconfig-python 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/compizconfig-python/compizconfig-python-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.
Comment 1 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2013-03-27 09:53:48 UTC 
Hi Dennis,
i'm full against to build compiz for ARM architectures.
It was more an idea from Dan Marchal as from me.
I have any interesst to run into bugreprts of an architecture which i don't use.
Patching the code of stable compiz for this is for me a sign not to do this.
I see no reason why a ARM device which have mostly small displays needs a 3D compositing manager.
Also, this project is more in an experimental stage for me.

So, pls remove all compiz packages from your list of building for ARM.
