Description Jan Synacek 2015-10-01 07:52:13 UTC
Description of problem:
config.guess doesn't recognize ppc64le.

The environment-modules package uses the script when running its test suite. Bundling the script or turning off the tests is *not* a solution.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dejagnu-1.5.1-3.el7.noarch


Steps to Reproduce:
1./usr/share/dejagnu/libexec/config.guess


Actual results:
/usr/share/dejagnu/libexec/config.guess: unable to guess system type

This script, last modified 2012-12-29, has failed to recognize
the operating system you are using. It is advised that you
download the most up to date version of the config scripts from

  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD
and
  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD

If the version you run (/usr/share/dejagnu/libexec/config.guess) is already up to date, please
send the following data and any information you think might be
pertinent to <config-patches> in order to provide the needed
information to handle your system.

config.guess timestamp = 2012-12-29

uname -m = ppc64le
uname -r = 3.10.0-320.el7.ppc64le
uname -s = Linux
uname -v = #1 SMP Mon Sep 28 08:12:29 EDT 2015

/usr/bin/uname -p = ppc64le
/bin/uname -X     = 

hostinfo               = 
/bin/universe          = 
/usr/bin/arch -k       = 
/bin/arch              = ppc64le
/usr/bin/oslevel       = 
/usr/convex/getsysinfo = 

UNAME_MACHINE = ppc64le
UNAME_RELEASE = 3.10.0-320.el7.ppc64le
UNAME_SYSTEM  = Linux
UNAME_VERSION = #1 SMP Mon Sep 28 08:12:29 EDT 2015



Expected results:
The architecture is recognized.


Additional info:
New versions of config.guess work correctly.
