Ahoy,

In Ubuntu I noticed that I couldn't build hkl (needed for the glew
transition, indirectly) on ppc64el because emacs is FTBFSing there.

After having a look at the package, I figured out that it's actually not
necessary to have emacs around except for the Arch: all -doc package. A
small patch (or you could do similar in packaging) is required to
install the manpage even if --disable-hkl-doc is passed. Attached.

Ever yours,
