Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 01:08:02 UTC 
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  libpng10 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/libpng10/libpng10-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.
Comment 1 Paul Howarth 2013-03-24 17:10:40 UTC 
libpng and libpng10 have the same upstream and build from the same general codebase so I'll leave the upstreaming to the libpng maintainer. There would only be another libpng10 release in the event of a security issue in all probability.

In the meantime, I have applied Dennis' patch and done builds for F-19 and Rawhide.
