Dear Maintainer,
The package cvc3 fails to build from source on ppc64el.
Althought it uses autotools-dev config files and it is set as a build-dep,
the target cleanbuilddir/cvc3 forces it to run configure before anything else.
That partially invalidates the use of autotools-dev, since it should help
to configure the package.
I am not sure if this is the ideal way to do this, but I added a workaround
in debian/builds (patch attached) so it at least updates and cleans the
config.{guess,sub}
in the aforemenetioned target.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks.
Fernando
