[bug-patch] Request to spin new release of patch pkg to support ppc64le arch

[isha vishnoi]

Hello,

I am working on a new architecture - ppc64le (powerpc 64-bit Little Endian) and building latest patch package downloaded from

ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/patch/patch-2.7.1.2-291e.tar.gz on our ppc64le environment.

I found that it doesn't build on ppc64le ( IBM PowerPC New Architecture for Little Endian ) because it was generated using an outdated version of Libtool.

We have worked with Libtool maintainer to get alpha release that supports ppc64le platform.

Can you please spin off a new version of your package using the alpha Libtool release.

Libtool alpha release is available in below mention sites  :

ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.gz (1.6MB)
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.4.2.418.tar.xz (920KB)

Please let me know if you need any help.

Thanks and Regards,
Isha Vishnoi
