Source: ostree
Version: 2017.15-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch pending upstream
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Forwarded: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1392

ostree fails to build from source on mips, s390x, hppa, powerpc, ppc64
and sparc64. I believe those are exactly the architectures that are
big-endian and do not disable build-time tests.

(powerpcspe and m68k are also BE, but they don't run build-time tests,
which IMO is a bad idea; those ports ship an ostree package but don't
check whether it works.)

Patch at https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1393.
