Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 15:37:37 UTC
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  nurbs++ 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/nurbs++/nurbs++-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.

Closing. As stated on other bug 924960, submitter did not respond to request on how to test. I do not have access to this architecture, so cannot fix.

I don't if you read this so I post it here : 

as pointed out in this thread : 
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-June/184098.html 

The better solution is:   
  * Added: BuildRequires: autoconf, automake, libtool, pkgconfig
  * In "%prep" added: autoreconf --install --force 
( from 
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-June/184111.html )

anyway I also can't test it if works because I still don't have a koji for aarch64
