Title:
  Backport ppc64el support to stable releases for infratructure/buildd
  use

Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “dpkg” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This allows various bits of archive and package building infrastructure on precise to recognise ppc64el as a valid arch, needed for Soyuz, but also some third-party archive infrastructure setups.

  [Test Case]
  Test that "dpkg-architecture -appc64el" outputs the same on precise-proposed as it does on saucy.

  [Regression Potential]
  Minimal regression potential. Should double-check that "dpkg-architecture -appc64el" and "dpkg-architecture -apowerpc" output as desired, with 32/64 bits and eb/el as appropriate.
