Dear Maintainer,

The package fails to build from source on ppc64el and probably on other new 
architectures
 due to autotools configuration files being out of date.
The usage of dh-autoreconf, included in the patch attached, will update the 
files properly
 and build will complete successfully.

Thanks and regards.
Fernando
