armhf (unknown-linux-gnueabihf) is not supported by GNU config upstream as of 2011-05-08, according to the commits in their public upstream git repository. As per the rules of engagement and previous warning sent to debian-devel[1], I will forward this bug report upstream along with a patch and changelog entry in order to get the triplet you require. Please provide a GNU config patch (which changes config.sub/.guess as required, as well as the suggested ChangeLog entry). Some people that appear more relevant in the last debian-devel thread[1] are being copied, so that they can offer their input. Please forward it to anyone I might have missed. Once submitted, I will forward the patch upstream, and update the package as soon as I receive notice that upstream has added the triplet. You are also welcome to forward it upstream yourselves, and notify this bug report of the patch progress, should you prefer to work that way. Should upstream disagree with the addition of the triplet, the issue will have to be resolved directly upstream. I do not want the insane situation where the latest upstream GNU config does not work for a released Debian port to ever happen. If any of you disagree with this upstream-first policy, you will have to provide extremely convincing technical reasons. [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/02/msg00904.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/02/msg00942.html I will wait for the GNU config patch. FYI, in an attempt to make things easier, I will upload to unstable immediately a new version of autotools-dev which is in sync with upstream git, just in case anything near the area you must modify in the patch has changed. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
