Description Dennis Gilmore 2013-03-23 16:26:01 UTC 
Support for the ARM 64 bit CPU architecture (aarch64) was introduced in 
autoconf 2.69.  thunderbird-lightning 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/thunderbird-lightning/thunderbird-lightning-aarch64.patch
which updates config.guess and config.sub to recognize aarch64.

patch + spec changeset

This patch adds use of system copy of libffi (like firefox and thunderbird do). Also updates all config.{sub,guess} copies to get package built on AArch64
