RE: Issue in Config.guess - in system powerpc64le

[Kumar, Awanish]

Hi - thanks for your response.

As suggested by you, I searched every occurrence of the files in the source 
directory and replace them with the downloaded file. But when I am trying to 
install its giving the old error, even the timestamp is showing " config.guess 
timestamp = 2011-10-19 ".

I don't able to find the location from where it is reading this timestamp. Is 
there any chances that this problem is related to something else?

Thanks
Awanish

If you replaced the two files with the current from the links provided below 
then why does the date from the script error message still show the year 2012.  
You must find every occurrence of the files in the source directory and replace 
them with the downloaded file.

Maybe not, but you haven't proved that yet.  You can execute the config.guess 
file manually that you downloaded to determine that.  I just took a moment to 
look at the script.  I find this snippet which tells me that your system is 
supported by the current script.

  ppc64le:Linux:*:*)
echo powerpc64le-unknown-linux-"$LIBC"
exit ;;

Replace all files named config.guess and config.sub with the current ones from 
the repository.
